Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't hold your love over my head Please don't use it against me Don't be that way tonight Don't be that way tonight Don't touch me with self-righteous hands Promise you won't judge me Don't walk away tonight [Chorus] Embrace me Save me from myself Don't you hate me When I can't do better Feel me Heal me if you dare It would kill me To lose you forever, mm [Post-Chorus] When it gets dark and it just don't come easy 'Cause it's too hard and we're too far gone Stay with me now, oh Pray for mе now When I mean good But the strеngth just ain't there to do good Tell me we good Talk to me now, when I can't do better [Verse 2] If I give you power to carry me Don't you use that power just to bury me It's been a long night Fuck it, it's been a long life, mm But the truth is, what I do with it is my biz 'til I'm through with it And it's my bed so I lay in it 'cause I'm cool with it [Chorus] So embrace me Save me from myself Don't you hate me When I can't do better Feel me Heal me if you dare It would kill me To lose you forever, mm And I need you to know [Post-Chorus] When it gets dark and it just don't come easy 'Cause it's too hard and we're too far gone Stay with me now, oh-oh (With me now) Pray for me now When I mean good But the strength just ain't there to be good Tell me, we good? Talk to me now, when I can't do better [Outro] When I can't do better Ooh, baby, love me through it We can do it, we can get through it Oh, hey, hey, yeah So embrace me, baby Hold me, baby When I can't do better Ooh Ooh-ooh
