I was born high
Thought I was out of reach
I was barely nine
When I felt the leash
I saw all you people
There under me
They said, "We'll be back
When you turn a teen"

You are the gravity that's holding me down
But I was blaming myself
Until I figured that out
You are the gravity that's holding me down
And I can never go back
I'm tainted now

And for many years
I never heard from them
Their vile thoughts
Gone from my head
But then I felt a pull
They were here again
Goodbye purity
Goodbye innocence

You are the gravity that's holding me down
But I was blaming myself
Until I figured that out
You are the gravity that's holding me down
And I can never go back
I'm tainted now
