Lyrics Hold You Like a Harness -

Hold You Like a Harness

Your teeth were rattling harder
Than a robber’s tommy gun
The lighter you couldn’t leave alone
As you told of a boy that you’d known
Ask if i get strange
When you mention certain words
I guess I’ll just pretend
I’m much harder of a man than i actually am
So I bought myself a wallet
To hold the money i don’t have
Called you on a Sunday
To try and make some plans
Hold you like a harness
And ask if you were free
To find out if you had been seeing
Anyone but me
You always wear a scarf
Wrapped around your neck like diamonds and gold
The softest wall I tore away
Was the one that kept you safe from the cold
There’s a way that this thing ends as clear to me
As the words from my oldest friends
Man, i can’t commit for shit
But damn can I act and pretend
