Little Things
Lillix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was never told about those little things
You do
I was heading down another dead end
Avenue,

But it just the Little things,
I hold on to the little things,
I, I, I,
I don't understand,
How could this be true?
You told I'm the one,
Then you broke my heart in two,

It's the little things,
Oh the stupid little things,
I can't let them go,

Then I gave in you took control,
And I was the last to know,
The more you learn the less we grow,

Tell me why the darkside of your smile,
Keeps me in denial,
Oh

I am getting bored to boredom,
Everything that's new,
Living in the past is how I keep my piont of view,

It's the little things,
Oh the stupid little things,
I can't let them go,

Then I gave in you took control,
And I was the last to know,
The more you learn the less we grow,

Tell me why the darkside of your smile,
Keeps me in denial,
I know this road has to end,

All of the signs says driving too hard
Break again

And I was the last to know
(know, know, know, know )

It's the little things,
Oh the stupid little things,
I can't let them go,

Then I gave in you took control,
And I was the last to know,
The more you learn the less we grow,

Tell me why the darkside of your smile,




Keeps me in denial,
Oh
