Hold Me - Matt Nathanson

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

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
