Intro:

Instrumental Break:

Chorus:

I gotta find my way back to you (ohhh)

Or find a way to make it through (oh)

'Cause my heart's a place that you hold down

I'm trapped in the memories of this town

I'll scream your name 'til my lungs are raw (oh)

Losing you should be against the law, in my mind. (in my mind!!)

Don't know what's coming next for me

This working hard takes all my energy

Scared I'm gonna lose my mind

But what's it all for (what's it all for!)

If you're not by my side?

I do the things that I hate, yeah,

I walk through the fire (ohhh!!)

Just to get back to you,

My one desire

See your face in my head when I'm all alone (all alone)

Hoping one day you'll come back to this broken home.

Chorus:

I gotta find my way back to you (ohhh)

Or find a way to make it through (oh)

'Cause my heart's a place that you hold down

I'm trapped in the memories of this town

I'll scream your name 'til my lungs are raw (oh)

Losing you should be against the law, in my mind. (in my mind!!)

Tryna be a better man, yeah

But I'm haunted by your ghost again, yeah

They tell me don't let the pain show,

But I put it in every song

So the whole world can sing along to how you did me wrong

That's my therapy, (my therapy)

That my own chemistry (own chemistry)

Turning all our bad memories into melodies, yeah

Sometimes I feel so small against the thought of you

I just stare at the wall,

Nothing else I can do.

Bridge:

This ain't a game, yeah

It's a war in my head

Between the things that you did and the things that you said (you said)

And I'm caught in the middle with nowhere to run

Just me and my shadow 'til the morning sun. (morning sun)

Outro:

That you hold down...

hold down...

Yeah, my heart's a place that you hold down...

In this lonely town...

Gotta find my way out...
