Tension

[Verse 1] You say things you don't mean too damn convincingly You take it back and then expect that it won't stick to me Was just an argument, no ounce of truth in it I wanna believe you but you came off so articulate [Pre-Chorus] I've tried walking away in my head For a moment it's peaceful then it scares me to death So I guess [Chorus] Sometimes tension brings us closer Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over? I get cold but you get colder Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over? You're not the things you say, you're not the things you do These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you Like sometimes tension, brings us closer I just wanna hold you when it's over You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over [Verse 2] You say love's push and pull Well, you're both the push and the pull And I'm hangin' on for dear life 'cause I'm scared to let you go The good that's left in us, it still feels good enough Set us on fire and I'll find a way to hold us up [Pre-Chorus] I've tried walking away in my head For a moment it's peaceful then it scares me to death So I guess [Chorus] Sometimes tension brings us closer Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over? I get cold but you get colder Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over? You're not the things you say, you're not the things you do These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you Like sometimes tension, brings us closer I just wanna hold you when it's over You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over [Post-Chorus] You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over [Bridge] You know, I would stick around in ways he wouldn't You know, I put up with things I really shouldn't You know, most the weight of us is on my shoulders You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over You know, I'll forgive you just to keep it simple You know, I will meet you so far past the middle You know, no one's ever seen you any lower You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over [Chorus] Sometimes tension brings us closer Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over? I get cold but you get colder Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over? You're not the things you say, you're not the things you do These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you Like sometimes tensions, brings us closer I just wanna hold you when it's over You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over [Post-Chorus] You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over
