Story Behind The Song
A relationship was ending and I just didn't care to hear the list of reasons, as the result was going to be the same regardless and dwelling on everything that went wrong didn't seem important.
Song Description
Deciding to just accept a break-up as is rather than hear the "whys" and know all the details and minutia involved in the decision making process.( Don't remind me of my failures)

Lyrics
Hold Back
Hear the music,
Listen to my words,
Words that i can't place
when we're standing face to face.
Afraid to expose
and leave no place to run to,
leave no place to hide,
when truth and hope collide
Got to Hold Back, got to Hold Back, got to Hold Back
I got to Hold Back
Got to Hold Back got to Hold Back got to Hold Back
cause i don't want to know.
The letters that you sent,
never opened never read,
are words you've never said
No right,no wrong,
just these choices i have made,
but it's safe in this charade
Got to Hold Back got to Hold Back got to Hold Back..........
So let me have this moment.
There's time enough to pay.
So for now I'm the leader in the fools parade,
but it's safe in this charade
I find comfort in this charade
Got to Hold Back, got to Hold Back, got to Hold Back
I keep it inside
cause i don't want to know.
I keep it inside
cause i don't want to know
so tell me your compassionate lies...
