Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Help me please
Help me be the one
Show me please
How I can be the one
[Verse 2]
'Cause I understand (Understand)
That I hold you back (I hold you back)
But I'm just a man (I'm just a man)
A bad one at that (A bad one at that)
So I hold it down (I'll hold it down)
And I'll give you up (I'll give you up)
'Cause I understand (I understand)
That you're not in love
[Verse 3]
Yeah, I'm gonna be alright
I see the light (I see the light)
Said I'm gonna be alright
(I see the light)
Yeah, I'm gonna be alright
[Verse 4]
Help me feel
Help me feel alright
Bury me
Bury me alive
[Verse 5]
'Cause I understand (I understand)
That I hold you back (I hold you back)
But I'm just a man (I'm just a man)
A bad one at that (A bad one at that)
So I hold it down (I hold it down)
And I'll give you up (I'll give you up)
'Cause I understand (I understand)
That you're not in love
[Verse 6]
'Cause I understand (I understand)
That I hold you back (I hold you back)
But I'm just a man
A bad one at that (A bad one at that)
So I hold it down (I hold it down)
And I'll give you up (I'll give you up)
'Cause I understand (I understand)
That you're not in love
[Verse 7]
Yeah, I'm gonna be alright
I see the light (I see the light)
So I'm gonna be alright
(I see the light)
Yeah, I'm gonna be alright
