Don'T Hold Me Down
Colbie Caillat


I'm just so tired of these troubles
That I try to hide !
Makes me wanna wash away
My whole world inside !
I think it's time that I make changes in the things I do
This weight on my chest
I am ready to loose !

And all this time
I've been getting in my own way
I have to tell myself
Only I can be the one to make a change

Don't hold me down !
Oh, I was getting so far
Don't hold me down !
B'coz I don't wanna fall apart
Don't hold me down !
You see me waking up and feel it now
I'm breaking down !
And nothing's gonna stop me now

No, no !

I have been rocking back and forth
In and across the line !
Hanging for a moment on the wrong side
Now I'm standing up, I think I'll be here for a while
Hope, I rememeber how to keep on this steady smile

And all that time
I've been getting in my own way
I have to tell myself
Only I can be the one to make a change

Don't hold me down !
Oh, I was getting so far
Don't hold me down !
B'coz I don't wanna fall apart
Don't hold me down !
You see me waking up and feel it now
I'm breaking down !
And nothing's gonna stop me now

I know, I'm gonna fight it
I'm tired of being blinded

So !

I won't hold me down !
Oh, I wanna go so far
I won't hold me down !
I don't wanna fall apart
Don't hold me down !
You see you're waking up and feel it now
I'm breaking down !
And nothing's gonna stop me now

No, no !

Nothing's gonna stop me now !

No, no, no !
No, no !

No, no !
