Lyrics Holding The Man - Nick Ward

Can something really be a lie, if you don't get caught?
Like, do things get easy when you live like you're everything you're not?
I'll get married when I'm 30, maybe even 32
Get my own place, have a kid or two
Picket fence, swimming pool
Baby, I'm the man
Now, I'm looking in the mirror, I'm exactly like my dad

Oh, please just hold me down
So my feet don't leave the ground
Please just hold me down
So my feet don't leave the ground

I came out in my best friend's car
Now I'm weightless, lifting off the ground
I never thought that it would change shit
Tell you things before I even tell myself
My life has been a lie and right before I end it

Everything I wish I told you all comes out
You've never known as much about me as you do right now
Everything I wish I told you all comes out
You've never known as much about me as you do right now
Could you stand here and hold me down?

Could you stand here and hold me
Oh, please just hold me down
(Could you stand here and hold me?)
So my feet don't leave the ground
(Could you stand here and hold me?)
Please just hold me down
(Could you stand here and hold me?)
So my feet don't leave the ground
(Could you stand here and hold me?)

Everything I wish I told you all comes out
You've never known as much about me as you do right now
Everything I wish I told you all comes out
You've never known as much about me as you do right now
