I´m just so tired of these troubles that I try to hide.
Makes me wanna wash away my whole world inside.
I think it´s time that I make changes in the things I do.
This weight on my chest I am ready to loose.

And all this time I´ve been getting in my own way.
I have to tell myself only I can be the one to make a change.

Don´t hold me down.
Oh, I was getting so far.
Don´t hold me down.
Cause I don´t wanna fall apart.
Don´t hold me down.
You see me waking up and feel it now.
I´m breaking down and nothing´s gonna stop me now.

No, no.

I have been rocking back and forth across the line.
Hanging for a moment on the wrong side.
Now I´m standing up, I think I´ll be here for a while.
Hope I rememeber how to keep on this steady smile.

All that time I was getting in my own way.
I had to tell myself only I could be the one to make a change.

Don´t hold me down.
Oh, I was getting so far.
Don´t hold me down.
Cause I don´t wanna fall apart.
Don´t hold me down.
You see me waking up and feel it now.
I´m breaking down and nothing´s gonna stop me now.

I know I´m gonna fight it.
I´m tired of being blinded.
So....

I won´t hold me down.
Oh, I wanna go so far.
I won´t hold me down.
I don´t wanna fall apart.
Don´t hold me down.
You see you´re waking up and feel it now.
I´m breaking down and nothing´s gonna stop me now.

No, no.
Nothing´s gonna stop me now.
No, no, no.
No, no.
No, no.
