lyrics
VERSE 1:
Trust less than i did before
Used to know me like i knew my core
When i’m lonely is it you i call
Serve me cup so my heart i pour
Let it flow free will you ask for more?
Like a windrush through an open door
Like a cool breeze through a corridor
Walking bare feet on a concrete floor
BRIDGE:
I’m hesitant
I know the reason’s irrelevant
I know you thinking i’m delicate
Wait a minute, just wait a minute, comprehend
I’m not just trying to compensate
For all of the silences i create
Sometimes it just feels like i can’t relate
HOOK:
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
VERSE 2:
Tryna be vulnerable
But to tell you the truth man that shit is uncomfortable
Trying to bare my soul
Hold up a mirror to the wounds that my body holds
Waters get murky
Feeling less worthy
How come all the quirkies
Be feeling so sad deep
BRIDGE:
I’m hesitant
I know the reason’s irrelevant
I know you thinking i’m delicate
Wait a minute, just wait a minute, comprehend
I’m not just trying to compensate
For all of the silences i create
Sometimes it just feels like i can’t relate
HOOK:
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me
I just want you to hold me

This is a very diverse album I have trouble picking just one favorite. And that is exactly why I love it. Just his cooperation album, this one just never gets boring. Sarah Kerrigan
