R: 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

1. Come to bed, don’t make me sleep alone
Couldn’t hide the emptyness you let it show
Never wanted 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

R: 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
Oh

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

2. Darling I forgive you after all
Anything is better than being 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

R: Lithium, don’t want to lock me up inside
Lithium, don’t want to forget how it feels without
Lithium, stay in love with me
Oh I am gonna let it go.
