Gravity
by Dave Douglas, Agnes

Album: My Other Band, Vol. 1

Gravity
Keep me on solid ground
Gravity
C'mon, hold me down

I'm asking for it so
Touch me in an instant
And I'll see again
That I need you for it
Extol me with compassion
And I'm back to earth

Consequence of my lack of common sense

I can't be sure why it
Seems that I can never learn from my mistakes
I want change
I want growth
Coming from inside and breaking through my skin

My words giving you more than you already deserve

I should know it's always been easier
Easier to break than bend
So hold me tight

You're gravity to me
Keep me on the ground
When I start to float
Gravity to me
C'mon, hold me down
When I start to float away

I'm willing to make mistakes
But I will refuse to live in sight of them
Can't stop me, I'll make them freely
Though you hold the burdens of the gravity
Beneath my feet
You were correct, and I will gladly receive

It's always been easier
Easier to break than bend
So hold me tight

You're gravity to me
Keep me on the ground
When I start to float
Gravity to me
C'mon, hold me down
When I start to float away
