Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My little love, I see your eyes widen like an ocean
When you look at me, so full of my emotions
I'm finding it hard to be here sincerely
I know you feel lost, it's my fault completely
[Verse 2]
(Tell me you love me)
(I love you a million percent)
[Verse 3]
I don't recognise myself in the coldness of the daylight
So I ain't surprised you can read through all of my lies
I feel so bad to be here when I'm so guilty
I'm so far gone and you're the only one who can save me
[Verse 4]
(Oi, I feel like you don't love me)
(Why do you feel like that?)
(Do you like-like me?)
(You know, mommy doesn't like anyone else like I like you, right?)
[Verse 5]
I'm holding on (Barely)
Mama's got a lot to learn (It's heavy)
I'm holding on (Catch me)
Mama's got a lot to learn (Teach me)
[Verse 6]
(Mummy's been having a lot of big feelings recently)
(Like how?)
Just like (How?) Let me– I'm, I'm feeling like I'm trapped, like, um (What?)
(I feel a bit confused)
[Verse 7]
(Why?)
(I don't know)
(And I feel like I don't really know what I'm doing)
(Oh, at all?)
(At all)
(And that would make me go giy-ay-ay)
[Verse 8]
My little love, tell me, do you feel the way my past aches?
When you lay on me, can you hear the way my heart breaks?
I wanted you to have everything I never had
I'm so sorry if what I've done makes you feel sad
[Verse 9]
(I love your dad 'cause he gave you to me)
(You're half me and you're half daddy)
(Oh)
[Verse 10]
I'm holding on (Barely)
Mama's got a lot to learn (It's heavy)
I'm holding on (Catch me)
Mama's got a lot to learn (Teach me)
[Verse 11]
(I'm having a bad day, I'm having a very anxious day)
(I feel very paranoid, I feel very stressed)
(Um, I have a hangover, which never helps, but)
(I feel like today is the first day since I left him that I feel lonely)
(And I never feel lonely, I love being on my own)
(I always preferred being on my own than being with people)
[Verse 12]
(And I feel like maybe I've been, like, overcompensating)
(And being out and stuff like that to keep my mind off of him)
(And I feel like today I'm home, and I wanna be at home)
(And I just wanna watch TV and curl up in a ball and)
(Be in my sweats and stuff like that, but I just feel really lonely)
(I feel a bit frightened that I might feel like this a lot)
