Hard To Swallow

You Me At Six · Hold Me Down [2010]

this is so hard to swallow

you keep your thoughts by your pillow

just so you can adore them

and just so we can ignore them



i'd rather leave than follow

i'd rather stay than go home

your moves have got so old

or so i've been told

but now you've lost it all



we're running out of time

we got things on our mind

and things that we just don't like

who'd you wanna say?

who'd you wanna be, tonight?



forgetting the promises that you make

is how your, your promises easily break

you sit on your fence

and i'll dig under it

i'll count my losses

and i'll count my sins

and i hope you find your head.



we're running out of time

we got things on our mind

and things that we just don't like

who'd you wanna say?

who'd you wanna be, tonight?



we're running out of time

we got things on our mind

and things that we just don't like

who'd you wanna say?

who'd you wanna be, tonight?



we were young and we were blind

we ignored the warning signs

how were we to know?

how were we to know?



we were close but still so far

we grew apart and out of touch

all i wanted was

all i wanted was to say..



we're running out of time

we got things on our mind

and things that we just don't like

who'd you wanna say?

who'd you wanna be, tonight?



we're running out of time

we got things on our mind

and things that we just don't like

who'd you wanna say?

who'd you wanna be, tonight?

tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
