Lithium - don't want to lock me up inside 
Lithium - don't want to forget how it feels without 
Lithium - I want to stay in love with my sorrow 
Oh but God I want to let it go 
 [bad word] to bed, don't make me sleep alone 
Couldn't hide the emptiness - you let it show 
Never wanted it to be so cold 
Just didn't drink enough to say you love me 

I can't hold on to me 
Wonder what's wrong with me 

Lithium - don't want to lock me up inside 
Lithium - don't want to forget how it feels without 
Lithium - I want to stay in love with my sorrow 

Don't want to let it lay me down this time 
Drown my will to fly 
Here in the darkness I know myself 
Can't break free until I let it go 
Let me go 

Darling, I forgive you after all 
Anything is better than to be alone 
And in the end I guess I had to fall 
Always find my place among the ashes 

I can't hold on to me 
Wonder what's wrong with me 

Lithium - don't want to lock me up inside 
Lithium - don't want to forget how it feels without 
Lithium - I want to stay in love with my sorrow 
Oh but God I want to let it go
