[Verse 1]
Just don't get me started on the simple things
Right before you fly, you fix the broken wings of
Everything that carries you forward now
Patching up the holes remaining in your word now
I start to question what is real or not
I pick apart my every thought
Dig in to a dark place
Bury the thought of your face

[Pre-Chorus]
It's alright, it's alright
Tell me you need me
Telling you that it's alright, it's alright
But you're no good for me

[Chorus]
Pretty little thing
Attention only when in need
'Cause you know that I'll cave in
Pretty little thing
You know the way to make me weak
But I'll stand on my own feet
Shame on you for hitting where it most hurts
Shame on me for listening
Pretty little thing
I think you better turn away
My attention is ending
[Verse 2]
Whatever helps you sleep at night
Is certainly beside me
'Cause I've been searching for the answers
On this old abandoned road you've built
Desperate to see
Just don't get me started on the simple things (simple things)
Right before you fly, you fix the broken wings of
Every single promise that you flew my way
Picking up the notion that you may come back

[Pre-Chorus]
It's alright, it's alright
Tell me you need me
Telling you that it's alright, it's alright
But you're no good for me

[Chorus]
Pretty little thing
Attention only when in need
'Cause you know that I'll cave in
Pretty little thing
You know the way to make me weak
But I'll stand on my own feet
Shame on you for hitting where it most hurts
Shame on me for listening
Pretty little thing
I think you better turn away
My attention is ending
[Bridge]
What if I was worth more to you (more to you)
Than every broken breath we take
I hear your call you're crying out
I scream your name

[Interlude]
Pretty little thing
Attention only when in need

[Chorus]
Pretty little thing
Attention only when in need
'Cause you know that I'll cave in
Pretty little thing
You know the way to make me weak
But I'll stand on my own feet
Shame on you for hitting where it most hurts
Shame on me for listening
Pretty little thing
I think you better turn away
My attention is ending

[Outro]
My attention is ending
Oh, oh, oh
