trying to get your head around the fact that me and you and love is dead
see how i´m trippin´ out
´cos you can´t decide what you really want from me

with a little l

there you were shouting out
cranking up your altercations, getting upset in your desperation
screaming and hollering
how could this love become so paper thin?

you´re making me sweat just to hold your attention

if you ain´t givin´ nothing to me

you make me love you, love you baby
with a little l

of my broken shell
