Weve been through the lies and disputes
 That only complicate and get in our way
 I try and focus on what to say to 
 Make you realize that I’ll be okay
 An explanation for your actions is all I want from you
 They say that it’s only a phase
 Give up on what you love
 Its a dead end anyways 
 And that’s all they had to say
 You need to pull yourself away
 
 I could see it comin
 Dont you dare start runnin
 Nothing’s gonna hold us down
 Weve got to push to make it better
 We could live forever
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 
 Ive given you all my reasons
 For everything I needed to say
 Took time forgivin
 While you were hidden
 I’m tryin hard to hold my anger all in
 As they forced the thoughts upon you, yo go quickly assault
 You just can’t bear to take the blame
 So you hold yourself together, always do what you’re told
 But really who are they to say
 You need to pull yourself away
 
 I could see it comin
 Dont you dare start runnin
 Nothing’s gonna hold us down
 We’ve got to push to make it better
 We could live forever
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 
 Believe it or not, Ill be there for you
 Hold out my hand, well see this thing through
 Believe it or not, Ill be there for you
 Hold out my hand, well see this thing through
 Believe it or not, Ill be there for you
 Hold out my hand, well see this thing through
 Believe it or not, Ill be there for you
 Whoa
 
 I could see it comin
 Dont you dare start runnin
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 Weve got to push to make it better
 We could live forever
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 
 I could see it comin
 Dont you dare start runnin
 Nothing’s gonna hold us down
 Weve got to push to make it better
 We could live forever
 Nothings gonna hold us down
 Hold us down
 Hold us down
 Nothings gonna hold us down
