"love me less" lyrics

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

Next to you, wide awake
With all the things I'll never say
I'm tryin' to, but I can't go there
Parts of me that I hate
Keep my heart locked in this cage
Dead-end street goin' nowhere

And I wanna believe
When you say you'll never leave
But what if history repeats?

All I want is to be loved
But I'm afraid of bein' hurt again
What if I try to open up
And you don't like what's underneath my skin?
I can see it in your eyes
You're lookin' at me like I'm heaven-sent
Baby, you don't know the closer that we get, I'm scared to death
If you know me more, you'll love me less

Wear this smile like a mask
Hopin' that you'll never ask
What's underneath, don't wanna show you
I still got cuts from my past
I'm barefoot on this shattered glass
And if I slip, would you still love who I really am?

'Cause I wanna believe
When you say you'll never leave
But what if history repeats?

All I want is to be loved
But I'm afraid of bein' hurt again
What if I try to open up
And you don't like what's underneath my skin?
I can see it in your eyes
You're lookin' at me like I'm heaven-sent
Baby, you don't know the closer that we get, I'm scared to death
If you know me more, you'll love me less (Ooh, ooh)

You'll love me less (Ooh, ooh)
Would you love me less? (Ooh, ooh)
Baby, I've been here before, I know the way it always ends
If you know me more, you'll love me less
