Halsey - Hold Me Down

To Rate
verse 1
My demons are begging me to open up my mouth
I need them, mechanically make the words come out
They fight me, vigorous and angry watch them pounce
Ignite me, licking up the flames they bring about

pre-chorus
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me i was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna

chorus
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door, make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that i want more, this is what i live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock mе out, knock me out
Saying that i want more, this is what i live for

verse 2
Sеlfish, taking what i want, and call it mine
I'm helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine
They rush me, telling me i'm running out of time
They shush me (shh), walking me across a fragile line

pre-chorus
I sold my soul to a three-piece (ah-ah)
And he told me i was holy (ah-ah)
He's got me down on both knees (ah-ah)
But it's the devil that's tryna

chorus
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door, make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that i want more, this is what i live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that i want more, this is what i live for

bridge
So hold me down now
Hold me down now
Hold me down

pre-chorus
I sold my soul to a three-piece
And he told me i was holy
He's got me down on both knees
But it's the devil that's tryna

chorus
Hold me down, hold me down
Sneaking out the back door, make no sound
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that i want more, this is what i live for
Hold me down, hold me down
Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown
Knock me out, knock me out
Saying that i want more, this is what i live for

spoken outro
Let's go all the way back
