Nobody's gonna hold you down
Nobody's gonna make you lose your mind
Nobody's gonna change your life
Nobody but you
Nobody but you, you, uh-uh, yeah
So many things about this crazy world
Are gonna hurt you - yeah, it's inevitable
But they can't cause you even half the harm
That you keep doing to yourself
And I try to make you see it
But I swear you must be blind
Oh, 'cause I see how you're falling
Over and over, again and again
Nobody's gonna hold you down
Nobody's gonna make you lose your mind
Nobody's gonna change your life
Nobody but you
Nobody but you, you, uh-uh, yeah
I only say this 'cause I love you so
You're giving everything to everybody and then some
You're speeding up until you lose control
I see it coming, but you just keep going
And I try to make you stop it
But you don't have those kinds of brakes
So you fly until you're crashing
Over and over, again and again
Nobody's gonna hold you down
Nobody's gonna make you lose your mind
Nobody's gonna change your life
Nobody but you
Nobody but you, you, uh-uh
You need somebody to tell you you're fucked - you're fucked
You need somebody to tell you you're loved - you're loved
Nobody's gonna hold you down
Nobody's gonna make you lose your mind
Nobody's gonna change your life
Nobody but you
Nobody but you, you, uh-uh, yeah
