When you're screaming out
But you can't make a sound
You know it's only a dream
When your back hits the ground and things turn around
You know it was only a dream

'Cause nothing is as bad as you think
Even when you're pulling at the seams
When the lights go out, you still got me, oh-whoa, oh
Detours lead to barricades
And home is far, your friends are fake
I'll be there to clear the way, oh-whoa

And you
You know my love can hold you down
You know my love can hold you down
And you
You know my love can hold you down
You know my love can hold you down

When the roof caves in and you just can't win
You know it'll only get better, only get better
When you fall too far, can't go back to the start
You know it'll only get better, only get better

Nothing is as bad as you think
Even when you're pulling at the seams
When the lights go out, you still got me, oh-whoa, oh
Detours lead to barricades
And home is far, your friends are fake
I'll be there to clear the way, oh-whoa

And you
You know my love can hold you down
You know my love can hold you down
And you
You know my love can hold you down
You know my love can hold you down
