Chicago Lyrics by First and Forever

Hold You Down - EP

2018

[Intro: Alex Ryan and Marcus Leopard]
I've been counting cigarettes
I've been counting down the seconds
Since you walked out that goddamn door
Your bitter sound haunts my each and every footstep
I can't wait to let you go
[Verse 1: Alex Ryan]
She's just as pretty as you think
Her tears run like ink down the pages that read like designer magazines
[Chorus: Alex Ryan]
Did you fly to Chicago to show me how hollow?
You make me feel like rain in my head
Was my bed warm?
I've been counting cigarettes
I've been counting down the seconds
Since you walked out that goddamn door
My memory fails me
My veins burn like embers
I can't wait to let you go
[Verse 2: Alex Ryan]
Take me back to seventeen
Velvet lips like nicotine that stained my neck
I was a nervous wreck
I swore I'd never go back
[Chorus: Alex Ryan]
Did you fly to Chicago to show me hollow?
You make me feel like rain in my head
Was my bed warm?
Did you fly to Chicago to show me hollow?
You make me feel like rain in my head
Was my bed warm?
[Bridge 1: Marcus Leopard]
I never missed out 'cause I never had you
You do what you want, I just do what I have to
For memory's sake I'll take your fault to my grave
For now it's keeping my bed warm
[Bridge 2: Alex Ryan and Marcus Leopard]
I've been counting cigarettes
I've been counting down the seconds
My only regret is that you don't regret this
Face down in the underline
You left me for dead but buried alive
My eyes blurred in the lights, but you still sing loud and clear
[Chorus: Alex Ryan and Marcus Leopard]
Did you fly to Chicago to show me how hollow?
You make me feel like rain (Like rain)
My memory fails me
My veins burn like embers
I can't wait to let you go (Like rain)
[Outro: Alex Ryan and Marcus Leopard]
I never missed out 'cause I never had you
You do what you want, I just do what I have to
For memory's sake I'll take your fault to my grave
For now it's keeping my bed warm
