Lyrics Holding Back - Hotel Mira

Holding Back

The phone
Rings around four A. M
And I know it’s not my friends
I’m only means to ends
Alone
Every time I don’t win
All that she wants is skin
And every time I give in
No!
There’s no need to speak in code
I think that by now we know
The way this is gonna go
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
She
She works the graveyard shift
And my hearts been chewed to shit
But she feels like a first
Damn
Guess Sharla won’t call me back
And Rachel can’t get attached
So I gotta start from scratch
Love
This shouldn’t be so hard
And that’s gonna leave a mark
Love will tear us apart, yeah
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
It’s none of my business
It’s none of my business
If something that you said
Is piquing my interest
Cause you wanna have fun
Cause you’re just a big kid
You want a cold drink
And you want to be kissed
It’s none of my business
It’s none of my business
Has anyone told you
You look like an actress
Pouting your big lips
And showing your midriff
And I got no gain
So I’m gonna forfeit
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
You’re holding back
