Hold Still! Lyrics

Dear Evelyn

I am

Not gonna send this letter

No love

Was given to me off of a silver spoon

So I learned how to savor off a blade

We both know I don't move how I used to move

Love me just the same

Love me just the same

I wrote you a song

You didn't sing it back

I wrote you another song

And you're singing it wrong

Woke up today (Good morning!)

(I just want to go back to sleep) I just need more time

I wrote you a third song, fourth song

Fourth time, four eyes

See you on the courtside

Swing and a miss

I laugh at you

Had to (Hold still!)

(1,2,3!) I'm still mad at you

Let me go back to the past

(Slap!)

I just slapped past you

(Hold st-Hold)

Still woke up today (Good mo-)

(Just wanna go back to sleep)

I memorize the patterns of your teeth and your anatomy

I'd rather dream

It's easier than unraveling why you do not grab at me

Cause I'm the only one obsessed with you who doesn't have to be

I'm cool

You're cool

We're cool

So why isn't this happening?

I'm actually matter-of-factly perplexed so this is sadden-

I wrote you a song

You didn't sing it back

I wrote you another song

And you're singing it wrong

Woke up today (Good morning!)

(I just want to go back to sleep) I just need more time

I wrote you a third song, fourth song

Fourth time, four eyes

See you on the courtside

Swing and a miss

I laugh

At you

Had to (Hold still!)

(1,2,3!) I'm still mad at you

Let me go back to the past

(Slap!)

I just slapped past you

(Hold st-Hold Still)

(Ill ill ill ill ill ill ill)

(Ill ill ill ill ill ill ill ill)

(Ill ill ill ill ill ill ill ill)

(Ill ill ill ill ill ill ill ill)

Hold still
