Verse 1

I force myself into these riddles hoping that you'll know
You've got me caught up in this daydream, trippin' with a glow
I lose the lines that separate tales from truth and fact
You come around, again I'm breakin' down and watch how you react
You're takin' me over, bending me in
You're takin' me away, pull me inside


Chorus

Can't I keep you inside, hold you down with me
Let the world go on without us
Let the world go on
Can't I keep you down with me
Can't I keep you here?
Let the world go on


Verse 2

Each day I wake, you're on my mind just like the day before
Every night I close my eyes, focus on you, pretend you're real
I dream your voice, your flawless face, the way that you would hold me
I dream of your shapeless existense turning in with me
You're pulling me under, twisting me down
You're driving me further, bring me around


Chorus

Can't I keep you inside, hold you down with me
Let the world go on without us
Let the world go on
Can't I keep you down with me
Can't I keep you here?
Let the world go on


Bridge

Could I just for once hold you
Could I just for once touch you
Could I just for once breathe you in, hold you in
...hold you
Let me live in this daydream you bring me
Let me hear it just once
Let the world go on without us
Let the world go on


Chorus

Can't I keep you inside, hold you down with me
Let the world go on without us
Let the world go on
Can't I keep you down with me
Can't I keep you here?
Let the world go on
