Line Without a Hook (Remix) Lyrics
I don't really give a damn about the way you touch me when we're alone
You can hold my hand if no one's home
Do you like it when I'm away?
If I went and hurt my body, baby, would you love me the same?
I can feel all my bones coming back, and I'm craving motion
Mama never really learned how to live by herself
It's a curse, and it's growing
You're a pond, and I'm an ocean
Oh, all my emotions feel like explosions when you are around
And I've found a way to kill the sound, oh
[Chorus: Ricky Montgomery]
Oh, baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you
I need you here to stay
I broke all my bones that day I found you
Crying at the lake
Was it something I said to make you
Feel like you're a burden?
Oh, and if I could take it all back
I swear that I would pull you from the tide
[Verse 2: mxmtoon]
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
And I know that you know (Yes I know, that you know)
Listen close and move slow (Listen close and move slow)
I can't speak fast or else I'll crack
It's the price I pay for going back
And I've dreamed to be seen (I've dreamed to be seen)
Now I've got it, do I want it?
Oh, baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you
I need you here to stay
I broke all my bones that day I found you
Crying at the lake
Was it something I said to make you
Feel like you're a burden?
Oh, and if I could take it all back
I swear that I would pull you from the tide (I, I)
[Bridge: mxmtoon, Ricky Montgomery & both]
Darling, when you're fast asleep
I feel your dreams begin to bleed
Saying, "Is it worth it? Is it worth it?
Tell me, is it worth it?
Is it worth it?" (Oh-oh)
'Cause there is something, and there is nothing
There is nothing in between
And in my eyes, there is a tiny dancer
Watching over me, he's singing
"She's a, she's a lady, and I am just a boy"
Singing "She's a, she's a lady, and I am just a line without a--" (Hook)
[Chorus: Ricky Montgomery & mxmtoon]
Oh, baby, I am a wreck when I'm without you
I need you here to stay
I broke all my bones that day I found you
Crying at the lake
Oh, was it something I said to make you
Feel like you're a burden?
Oh, and if I could take it all back
I swear that I would pull you from the tide
About
Ricky Montgomery had his first-ever official music collaboration through in a 2021 rerelease of his 2016 song “Line Without a Hook” with indie-pop artist mxmtoon.
On February 1st, 2021, Montgomery tweeted a picture showing a featured collaboration with a mystery artist by blurring out their name on the remix’s cover art. Two days later, he tweeted the official art, confirming mxmtoon as the featured artist.
On mxmtoon’s side of all things, she hinted towards the fact she did have plans with Montgomery by replying to a fan on a Tik Tok.
This sparked several theories that there was going to be a collaboration with Montgomery. Several days later, right after Montgomery revealed her to be the featured artist, mxmtoon posted on Twitter:
