Oh, you held me 

By my handles

But you could not hold me down

And you lit me babe

With your candles

You know my fires

They'll burn on

There's a living

Long descending

Unfinished business it is called

Remember babe

How you left me?

On my stomach

In a crawl

YOU HELD ME is about survival. On the surface it's more about just keeping your desires but staying all the wiser. It moves in a catchy progression with a natural openness and a dynamic that allows other musicians to contribute in ways they prefer to. There's a simple reference to fire and about taking the flame and just keeping it growing. What other choice is there? Keep it lit.
