Hold it in
The river in your mouth is pouring out
Water takes a
Shape of all that it surrounds
Yeah, I know
I've been trying so hard
Keeping time with all of the hours in your day
Hold it in they
Wouldn't let you out among the crowd?
Not like that
These streets will tear you down
How it is
Under my skin?
Now you are pictures of all you’ll ever be
I am not myself today
I am not feeling okay
Hold it in
The river in your mouth is pouring out
Water takes a
Shape of all that it surrounds
Yeah, I know
I've been trying so hard
Keeping time with all of the sounds that you make
Hold it in
They come at you from both sides of your mind
Thick and thin
These walls you’ll always stand behind
I'm sick and tired
Oh, I begged for the word to change
But it don’t
No, it ain't all you, and that's the thing
I am not myself today
I am not feeling okay
And you showed me hope
Amidst the eloquence in spring
And you told me life was learning how to be your friend
