I held back, you said your piece
Cause I just didn’t have the guts to let you fall
But I was dead wrong, I bet you’re still crying out
I bet the shoe still fits
I bet you haven’t changed one bit
Another drunk night, stuck alone with your thoughts
You were the weight that held me back
But you can blame me if you want to

I don’t feel the things I felt back then
And I don’t want to let you fall
But this is cutting me open
But now I’ve gone too far
It’s not right to drag you for another year
But when I bring it up, I choke
And let you walk all over me

I held back, you said your piece
Cause I just didn’t have the guts to let you fall
But I was dead wrong, I bet you’re still crying out
I bet the shoe still fits
I bet you haven’t changed one bit
Another drunk night, stuck alone with your thoughts
You were the weight that held me back
But you can blame me if you want to

I wish you’d still think of when
You said it’d be permanent
When you said it’s me and not your friends
Well, the side you took said everything

That’s when it all changed for me
When the lights came on
The cold had left, I could hear you calling
But I just kept my head on straight
Didn’t let you in, braced myself
For the makeshift lines, I said
I don’t feel the things I felt back then
Cause you’re not you anymore

I held back, you said your piece
Cause I just didn’t have the guts to let you fall
But I was dead wrong, I bet you’re still crying out
I bet the shoe still fits
I bet you haven’t changed one bit
Another drunk night, stuck alone with your thoughts
You were the weight that held me back
But you can blame me if you want to
