lyrics

(rook) hold it in
(chloe) gotta keep it inside
(rook) hold it down
(chloe) or i'll just let it die
(rook) let it die
(chloe) the part of me thats lost
(rook) live it down
(chloe) did it at what cost

(rook)

fall between the mirrors
since i was just a kid i'd be around
but never nearer to anybody's human spirit
half a room half a mile half a country
half a person cuz i didnt know what was me
im sick of writing abt how scared i was
its harder to express
the feeling of being lost between the cracks
reflection for a mask
i know the motions but im still too scared to dance

(rook) hold it in
(chloe) gotta keep it inside
(rook) hold it down
(chloe) or i'll just let it die
(rook) let it die
(chloe) the part of me thats lost
(rook) live it down
(chloe) did it at what cost
x2

(chloe)

your reflection
my regression
different segments
don’t the your world end
see the sky fall
see how life bends
i’m drowning sea thats lost
i’m paying for my sins
tell them to pick up the pace
i know we’re caught in this race
it seems like i’m either a winner
or a fuckin disgrace
so now i’m stepping out
i’m taking a walk
and it won’t make sense to leave
the radio on
fuck it

get the doves and
watch before hatch
something the could never ever match
a code that you could never really crack
a fuck you note on a track
half a room half a mile half a country
i seen some shit that if you saw
it’s make your world freeze
and i’ll admit i’m lost
another time we’ll cross
thought i was playin fair
to you i’m playin soft
held it in, held it down
and i’m still around
too bad you could never shut me down
remember four years ago yeah i played the clown
i could see your downfall but i’m around

(rook) hold it in
(chloe) gotta keep it inside
(rook) hold it down
(chloe) or i'll just let it die
(rook) let it die
(chloe) the part of me thats lost
(rook) live it down
(chloe) did it at what cost

tell me where you go
tell where you wanna know
how you gon go slow
tell me what you wanna you know
tell me what you wanna show
tell me its another road (x2)

(rook) hold it in
(chloe) gotta keep it inside
(rook) hold it down
(chloe) or i'll just let it die
(rook) let it die
(chloe) the part of me thats lost
(rook) live it down
(chloe) did it at what cost
x2
