The pressure holds you under, but you won't pull away Your shoulder's growing colder, is it because of me Merrily it all falls down and crashes all around me Chasing ghosts around a town that you would not be found in Merrily, crash around me I'm afraid you will leave before it's even started I'm so scared you will take every last ounce of passion Right out of me, you pull I'll follow your lead In the absence of passion I'm leaving you underneath What am I supposed to do When you walk away, do I chase after you Mistaking pain for hate When you build a wall and I can't get through to you Merrily it all falls down and crashes all around me Chasing ghosts around a town that you would not be found in Merrily, crash around me I'm afraid you will leave before it's even started I'm so scared you will take every last ounce of passion Right out of me, you pull I'll follow your lead In the absence of passion I'm leaving you underneath I'm afraid you will leave before it's even started I'm so scared you will take every last ounce of passion Right out of me, you pull I'll follow your lead In the absence of passion I'm leaving you underneath
