Hold me still, hold me still,
I can’t seem to stop moving.
The clock’s tick-tocking me away
when all I’ve ever wanted is to stay.

Never restless yet never really at rest,
always so careful but fumbling at best;
so stubborn but so weak a will,
this lack of control is such a bitter pill.

Hold me still, hold me still,
time doesn’t wait, it just moves quickly.
Hold on to me, keep me until
I can’t stop drifting away inevitably.

Until then I’m here as you will,
until then just hold me still.
