The Happy Fits is a band is found myself obsessed with during the summer; their indie rock/pop sound transports me right into a 'coming of age' type movie. Hold Me Down is one of my personal favorites, but I highly recommend checking out their other material since it's equally great. All good vibes here!


Maybe I'm crazy I've

Been talking to myself at night

And I'm feelin' so alone


If I can get the words out right

To tell you how I feel, I might

But they're comin' out so wrong


Then the voices, they come rushin' in

Like a ten tonne truck into soft cement

Now the words make sense but I can't repeat

Because sense don't make what it used to be

I'm here, my love, but I'm floating, baby


Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind

You tied a tether here to keep me close

I've been talking to myself on some Icarus spell

But it got better when you didn't go

Oh, tell me when you wanna get out of here

And I won't need any more

Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind

You know I'd really hate to see me float


I tremble when I see your eyes

I saw them in a dream last night

And they heard me sing a song

I never cared for fancy art

Or poetry and old guitars

But they always sing along


Then the notes fill up like a big balloon

As I'm drifting upwards away from you

Now I'm screaming mad with two clenched hands

Will beauty come if I don't land?

I'm here, my love, but I'm floating, baby


Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind

You tied a tether here to keep me close

I've been talking to myself on some Icarus spell

But it got better when you didn't go

Oh, tell me when you wanna get out of here

And I won't need any more

Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind

You know I'd really hate to see me float


Write it to myself at night

As long as you're here, I'll be all alright

Write it to myself at night

As long as you're here, I'll be all alright

Write it to myself at night

As long as you're here, I'll be all alright


I'm here, my love, but I'm

I'm here, my love, but I'm floating, baby


Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind

You tied a tether here to keep me close

I've been talking to myself on some Icarus spell

But it got better when you didn't go

Oh, tell me when you wanna get out of here

And I won't need any more

Hold me down tight when I'm losing my mind

You know I'd really hate to see me float
