Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Been one for about nine months, and

For six months we've been so checked out

Don't listen

So distant

Tell me what that's all about

[Verse 2]

Deep down I know we're done, but

I can't get it out my mouth

But then I give the runaround

Because

[PreChorus]

I have a tendency

To stay where I'm not meant to be

Running from responsibility when it's mine

I stay blaming my empathy

'Cause I don't want no enemies

Usually I'd brush it off

But, sorry, not this time

[Chorus]

I can't sweep it under the rug

If it ain't working, if it ain't worth it

Can't be no kinda love

If you ain't certain, if it keeps hurting

We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf gathering dust

We gotta give it up (Give it up)

Can't sweep it under the rug (Under the rug)

[Verse 3]

Went in with the best intentions

Usually I never would've mentioned

Little things that bothered me

But been there, done that (Done that)

I usually would've waited

You made stuff overcomplicated (You did)

So now I put your feelings last

But still it's hard

Because

[PreChorus]

I have a tendency

To stay where I'm not meant to be

Running from responsibility when it's mine

I stay blaming my empathy

'Cause I don't want no enemies

Usually I'd brush it off

But, sorry, not this time

[Chorus]

I can't sweep it under the rug

If it ain't working, if it ain't worth it

Can't be no kinda love

If you ain't certain, if it keeps hurting

We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf gathering dust

We gotta give it up (Give it up)

Can't sweep it under the rug (Under the rug)

[Bridge]

There's no need for blame

We both feel the same

No regrets

It's time I said all there is to say

I know it's a shame

[Chorus]

I can't sweep it under the rug

If it ain't working, if it ain't worth it

Can't be no kinda love, yeah, yeah (If you ain't certain, if it keeps hurting)

We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf gathering dust

We gotta give it up (Give it up)

Can't sweep it under the rug (Under the rug)

[Chorus]

Can't sweep it under the rug, oh whoa, oh, no

If it ain't working, if it ain't worth it

Can't be no kinda love

If you ain't certain, if it keeps hurting

We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf gathering dust

We gotta give it up (Give it up)

Can't sweep it under the rug (Under the rug)
