Keep You Down

I could've told you they loved you
From the way they stood still
But I hope you didn't notice
And that you never will

It isn't hard to imagine
You won't need me someday
Cause I know something that you don't
You never did anyway

Our love's already
begun to brown
And unless I can convince you
No one could want you now
You're gonna see how easy
It is to fool around
I have to keep you down

At some point you decided
You were burning through self esteem
So you locked up whatever was left
And trusted me with the keys

You thought I'd figured it all out
And that's completely insane
I think you should've considered
No one remembers my name

Our love's already
begun to brown
And unless I can convince you
No one could want you now
You're gonna see how easy
It is to fool around
I have to keep you down

Your oversights gonna cost you
Maybe eventually
See I've been betting against you
Unintentionally

Our love's already
begun to brown
And unless I can convince you
No one could want you now
You're gonna see how easy
It is to fool around
I have to keep you down
