The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He won't hold you
Like I do (no)
He won't bring out
The love in you
(He won't hold you)
I've been feeling down and out lately
(Like I do)
Baby since you left me
(He won't hold you)
It's been so long since your body held me
(Like I do)
Won't you come and save me?
(He won't hold you)
I never was misunderstood, baby
(Like I do)
Since the day you met me
(He won't hold you)
Now I'm lost, I'm on my own, I feel so lonely
(Like I do)
Won't you resurrect me?
(He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound
They dance along the avenue
Of what I thought I knew
(He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound (he won't)
They dance along the avenue
Of what I hound to
[Post-chorus: Jacob collier]
I won't be alright
I won't be alright
I won't be alright
And I won't be alright (say it again)
Things rearrange, we miss what is not the same
I learned the value of what we had, taught by pain
Caught the rain
Used it to wash my wounds
Learned the other side's grass wasn't as green, I bloomed, I grew
Took separation to get closer to you
You didn't let go and I held onto
Your arms were my armor
Karma cut us loose
You learned value, I learned truth
No one holds me down the way you do
But your feelings out there spill over, and over and over
Just to cover for insecurities, I couldn't show to him
I had to face myself, my fears, my feels
Now I know there's nothing I can't do
I dance in the rain knowin' I can swim too
Found liberation, found my freedom
Where it begins is without you
I understand now
My only one, without you
(He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound
They dance along the avenue
Of what I thought I knew
(He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound (the people sound)
They dance along the avenue
Of what I hound to
I won't be alright
I won't be alright
I won't be alright (be alright)
And I won't be alright
