Matter of Minutes - Holding You Back Lyrics

You're worse for my health than my Marlboro Reds
Every word you speak to me just tightens my chest
You're my dream, nothing less
But I'm still such a mess

I'm living life going step by step
Up one day, then I'm down the next
You don't deserve that
You don't deserve that

Cause I'm holding you back
So set me free
To fly my broken wings
Cause I'm done holding you back
If you float and I sink
I won't lose any sleep
Cause I'm done holding you back

Not a second of your day should be wasted on me
What you should have done
Or what we could have been
It's as simple as that

I'm holding you back
So set me free
To fly my broken wings
Cause I'm done holding you back
If you float I sink
I won't lose any sleep

Cause I'm done holding you back
I'm holding you back
I'm holding you back
I'm holding you back
