Hold up
Nick Smith Lyrics

What's with the hold up
I'm asking why you're delaying, unsure of what is causing you to hesitate.

White breath, big coat, got the cold touch
Your breath is visible, and you're wearing a thick coat, showing the temperature affects you. Possibly, you are feeling distant, unfeeling or indifferent.

Can't hear too much over shoulders
It's difficult to communicate when you're not fully engaged, listening or reciprocating my advances.

Don't sweat this night isn't over
We still have time to make the best of this night, and I want you to know not to give up on it yet.

Don't stress this love is a coaster
Love can sometimes be unpredictable, like a rollercoaster, going up and down. But you shouldn't let the unpredictable nature stress you too much.

Jump up, jump down on my sofa
Let's have fun, dance around and enjoy ourselves on this comfortable couch.

This air too loud with the Doja
The music is too loud, probably contributed to by smoking marijuana, making it hard to hear each other speak.

Tryna ease you out
I'm trying to make things less stressful and more relaxed for you.

Take a deep breath gonna calm you down
Maybe taking a deep breath will help you calm down, and it is a good way to relieve stress.

I hear this beat down deep inside
My soulful cries are loud and desperate for you to hear because they provide a brief moment of genuine connection.

Don't wait to feel, don't wait to try
Don't hold back waiting for the right moment or feeling because this could be what you're looking for.

If you come, better show up
If you're saying you're coming, then you should show up.

If you come better move
Once you decide to come and get on this rollercoaster of love, you need to be ready to move and enjoy the ride.

Hold up, slow touch
Maybe you've been holding back or moving too slow, and now it's causing distance.

Always blowing up phones
You may be overcompensating, trying too hard to reach and connect with me.

When the doors shut
Once the doors are closed, it could be too late to right any wrongs, so it's important to act now and not hesitate.

Deep breath, white knucks
Take a deep breath, and if you clench your fists, it may show how tight you're holding on to something, which could be indicative of unresolved emotions.

You should let in some air or you'll get stuck
You may need to let go of something holding you back, or it could prevent you from growing to your full potential.

Hurt feet, as the tears rush
You may feel emotionally, spiritually, or physically broken, and the pain may be accompanied by tears, a physical manifestation of the emotional trauma you may be experiencing.

Coat sleeve, keep the appearance up
It's important to keep up appearances, even when you're hurting, and sometimes it can feel like you're wearing a jacket that others have seen through, but you keep up the act to appear strong.

They don't know what you're crying for
Others may not understand your emotional journey, which could be making you feel vulnerable and isolating.

They don't know what you do to get out to the dance floor
The things that bring you happiness and joy, and how you outwardly express them, may not always be understood by others.

How many times that it takes to convince you
I'm willing to put in the effort and time to show you how much I adore you.

How many tries till i'm someone you want more
I'm willing to be patient and show you that I'm worth your time and affection, but there's only so many tries I can give.

I'm tryna show you the things that I'm into
I'm trying to share parts of myself with you, hoping for a deeper connection.

But every time we arrive at an ending
Every 'ending' seems to set us further back, preventing us from making progress.

And now I fear that I sound condescending
I am afraid of coming off as smug, scathing, or critical because of my growing frustration.

I know your hurt but you know that I'm mending
I understand that you're in pain, but you must trust me when I say that I'm trying to think of how to solve these issues.

We can still go home if you want to
We can choose to leave this party or date and return to a more intimate setting if that's what feels best for us.

I've been so lonesome since she went away
I've been feeling so lonely since she left me, and I'm trying to move on.

She's gone through changes but I've stayed the same
She may have grown or changed because of the circumstances that broke us apart, but I feel like I've remained stuck in place.

And she knows that my heart was in the right place
I hope and know that she can see that my intentions were only ever pure.

It's a shame that her right place is too far away
Unfortunately, she wasn't meant to be here, which is a shame because we may have been able to work through our problems if she was.
