Lyrics to Tension
You say things you don't mean too damn convincingly
You take it back and then expect that it won't stick to me
'Was just an argument' 'no ounce of truth in it'
I want to believe you but you came off so articulate
I've tried walkin' away in my head
For a moment it's peaceful then scares me to death
So I guess
Sometimes tension brings us closer
Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over
I get cold, but you get colder
Is it wrong, I just want to hold you when it's over
You're not the things you say
You're not the things you do
These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you
Like sometimes tension brings us closer
I just wanna to hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You say loves push and pull, well you're both the push and the pull
And I'm hangin' on for dear life cause I'm scared to let you go
The good that's left in us, it still feels good enough
Set us on fire, and I'll find a way to hold us up
I've tried walkin' away in my head
For a moment it's peaceful then scares me to death
So I guess
Sometimes tension brings us closer
Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over
I get cold, but you get colder
Is it wrong, I just want to hold you when it's over
You're not the things you say
You're not the things you do
These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you
Like sometimes tension brings us closer
I just wanna to hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I would stick around in ways you wouldn't
You know I put up with things I really shouldn't
You know most the weight of us is on my shoulders
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I'll forgive you just to keep it simple
You know I will meet you so far past the middle
You know no one's ever seen you any lower
You know I just wanna to hold you when it's over
Sometimes tension brings us closer
Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over
I get cold, but you get colder
Is it wrong, I just want to hold you when it's over
You're not the things you say
You're not the things you do
These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you
Like sometimes tension brings us closer
I just wanna to hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You take it back and then expect that it won't stick to me
'Was just an argument' 'no ounce of truth in it'
I want to believe you but you came off so articulate
I've tried walkin' away in my head
For a moment it's peaceful then scares me to death
So I guess
Sometimes tension brings us closer
Is it wrong, I just wanna hold you when it's over
I get cold, but you get colder
Is it wrong, I just want to hold you when it's over
You're not the things you say
You're not the things you do
These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you
Like sometimes tension brings us closer
I just wanna to hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You say loves push and pull, well you're both the push and the pull
And I'm hangin' on for dear life cause I'm scared to let you go
The good that's left in us, it still feels good enough
Set us on fire, and I'll find a way to hold us up
I've tried walkin' away in my head

Is it wrong, I just want to hold you when it's over
You're not the things you say
You're not the things you do
These are the lies I tell myself to stay with you
Like sometimes tension brings us closer
I just wanna to hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
You know I just wanna hold you when it's over
