Hold me down - cause I don't want to wait I've been blackmailed by myself into this state Shut it up - cause I don't want to hear These old boring ethics must end right here Hold me down - cause I don't want to be Another victim of salvation thats choking me Set it off - cause I've had enough So please please please yeah baby shut up Consider me consider this Empty phrases kissing on emptiness Hold me down - cause I don't want to wait For some lame unemployment plan to set it straight Shut it up - cause I don't want to hear About prospects of redemption by the things we fear Hold me down - cause I don't want to go Things are moving backwards baby or not at all Set it off - cause this is killing me Just waiting for somthing that will set us free for real Consider me consider this Empty phrases kissing on emptiness You see now baby this fire turns to flames And I kept hoping that things they would change But now I see what they are offering me Are just bigger cages and longer chains
