Hold My Little Baby

I hope you find a way to bring it back
 run and run, fireflies, a sneak attack
 forgetting that you really must get home
 you leave your shoes and laugh inside the pain
 now torture is a reasonable refrain
 I hold my little baby
 Magazines they're killing people just for fun
 what that means, even I'm still thinking of
 torture is a reasonable refrain
 and numbers they keep coming up the same
 I can't keep all the reasons in my brain
 I hold my little baby
 Can't believe we made it so far on this run
 please forgive me even if it's only just this once
 all my little speeches all the smack
 the point of it is slipping through the cracks
 something makes me want to take it back
 and hold my little baby
 All I know is that you waited there for me
 held your own like you had chosen not to leave
 I wonder at the pressures in your mind
 you let them work the coal behind your eyes
 a precious thing is neither yours nor mine
 I hold my little baby
