------------------------------

So I guess I must have just been dreaming

When I thought I heard myself say no

Anyway it looks like no one heard me so here I go

Cause when you're in the company of strangers

Or the strangers you call friends

You know before you start just how it's going to end

When the doors swing open and all the drinks are passed around

Anytime the pickins look too easy... hold me down.

I can't remember why I like this feeling

When it always seems to let me down

Soon I find I'm searching for the exit from the ground

If I think the room is turning faster

Then I think the music is too loud

By then I've lived another broken story to let me out

When those doors swing open and all the drinks are passed around

When half the party moves into the bathroom... hold me down

Or if you're at the tail end of the evening

And Dr. Feelgood comes around

Anytime the pickins look too easy... hold me down

Down if I want that part

Down if I've gone too far

[Instrumental]

Well I guess I must have just been reeling

When I felt myself begin to fall

I realize I'm bounding down the hallway off the walls

If my bed was standing in the corner

I could just fall into it right now

And know that I'd be staring at the ceiling going round

And so remember when those doors swing open

And all the drinks are passed around

When half the party moves into the bathroom

Hold me down

Or if you're at the tail end of the evening

And Dr. Feelgood comes around

Anytime the pickings look too easy

Hold me down

Down and I want back up

Down and I've gone too far

Know that I'll never be back home

Down and I've gone too far
