Keep on holding on to your trust
I know you don't want nothin' to do with me
But just one more time, let's make love
One more time it ain't much
Fuck 'em all, let's be us, summer's soft sweetness
Heartache drunk and hang up
What a mess I made us, sense, I make none
It's complicated, keeping me up late
Can't concentrate, you're always on my brain
If it's love then why the fuck you complain?
I just think that's some bullshit
Okay, it's seems inviting, trust me, she's a titan
This week she like him, next week they fightin'
Need protection, all your dress is bulletproof
