Tate McRae – Five Less Words lyrics

[Verse 1]
So sorry, I ain't about that small talk
Get to know me and you'll realize that you got it all wrong
'Cause I'm not like the other ones
So, I'm sorry for that

[Chorus 1]
I don't wanna try for you if
This is just a thing you do 'cause
There's enough stuff crammed in my head
So, if I make the time for you, you
Better know just what you'll lose when
I end up here with him instead

[Verse 2]
So sorry that I make it complicated
But if nothing's workin' I ain't gonna fake it
Oh, I'm not scared to call you out
So, don't back down
'Cause a girl's never opened her mouth before

[Chorus 1]
I don't wanna try for you if
This is just a thing you do 'cause
There's enough stuff crammed in my head
So, if I make the time for you, you
Better know just what you'll lose when
I end up here with him instead

[Bridge]
Can't you see I'm tryin'?
I really try to make this work but
Oh, I am dyin'
When each day there are five less words
Five less words

[Chorus 2]
I don't wanna try for you 'cause
This is just a thing you do and
There's enough stuff crammed in my head
So, now I've made the time for you, I
Thought you'd know just what you'd lose 'cause
I'm standing here with him instead
