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

I've tried walking away in my head
For a moment it's peaceful then scares me to death
So I guess

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

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

I've tried walking away in my head
For a moment it's peaceful then scares me to death
So I guess

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
You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over

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 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

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
You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know, I just wanna hold you when it's over
