Emotional
Abs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh its still a mystery
How she got me high
Anticipating what
She's gonna do cos I
Can't seem to let it go
Addicted by her drug
Aint got no remedy for this contagious kind of love
(CHORUS)
Didn't mean to get emotional
Feel like I'm sinking
It wasn't meant unintentional
I can see what you was thinking
Got a hole in her soul
Thats the shape of a man
Tell me who's your next victim
It aint that she hates ya
Its just her nature
Baby dont misunderstand


I give her what she needs
Don't ever seem enough
Aint got no room to breathe
Feels like a tainted love
I need to get away
Seems as though its been
To belong cos when I try
She pulls me right back in

(CHORUS x2)

Aint nothing left to give
Just a broken shell
Just enough to live
Just enough to tell a tale





(CHORUS)
