Holdin' me back

Gravity's holdin' me back

I want you to hold out the palm of your hand

Why don't we leave it at that?

Nothin' to say

And everything gets in the way

Seems you cannot be replaced

And I'm the one who will stay, oh, oh, oh

Ringin' the bell

And nobody's coming to help

Your daddy lives by himself

He just wants to know that you're well, oh, oh, oh

In this world, it's just us

You know it's not the same as it was

In this world, it's just us

You know it's not the same as it was

As it was, as it was

You know it's not the same

Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet

I don't wanna talk about the way that it was

Leave America, two kids follow her

I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first

As it was

You know it's not the same as it was

As it was, as it was
