[Chorus]
Lithium
Don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium
Don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium
I wanna stay in love with my sorrow, oh
But God, I wanna let it go
[Verse 1]
Come 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
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me
[Chorus]
Lithium
Don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium
Don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium
I wanna stay in love with my sorrow, ah
[Bridge]
Don't wanna 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
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me
[Chorus]
Lithium
Don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium
Don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium
Stay in love with you, ah
I'm gonna let it go

There’s the me in all white and it’s really wintry, and then there’s the all-in-black Amy under the surface of the water of this lake in the forest. So it’s the happiness and the sorrow and we’re almost singing to each other, trying to figure o...
Lee told MTV Italy:
It’s not literal about the drug for me, I’ve never taken lithium before. It’s sort of a metaphor about numbness and happiness and sort of like, it’s me looking at happiness in a negative way because I’ve always been kind of afraid to be happy. Like with the band and the art and...
