Hold Me

Hold me, and save me from my self.
I claim to be so righteous,
but I'm just like everyone else.
I was judging you,
and I realized just how big a lie I lead,yeah
Hold me.

I truly wish you could follow me
in my walk through brilliance.
But I've grown so much hollower
and the paths have all grown dense.
With vines of green, the color of envy.
With vines of green, the color of jealousy.
And it's funny, but I hate it when you steal the spotlight from me.
Ooooohhh, hold me.

I have no patience for hypocrites.
Have no patience for fakes.
I have no patience for those who make my same mistakes.
So hold me.

I truly wish you could follow me
in my walk through brilliance.
But I've grown so much hollower
and the paths have all grown dense.
With vines of green, the color of jealousy.
With vines of green, and all my insecurities.
And it's funny, but I hate it when you steal the spotlight from me.
Hold me.
