"Little Things" lyrics

"Little Things"

You don't say I'm pretty
Not like you used to
And I'd never admit it
I'm trying so hard for you

But all of the moments I treasure
In the morning you won't remember
Don't know why you can't keep it together long enough to try

I make big things out of little things
And I watch you keep missing them
You don't get why it's killing me
Every time you mess this up
Set myself on fire, to keep us warm
Swear I lose my mind watching you ignore
All the little things, the little things
Mean so much more

So no I'm not finished, no
Don't look at me crazy
I hate when you say shit you don't mean
Just cause you're angry

Cause all of the moments I treasure
You're too messed up to remember
Don't know why you can't keep it together long enough to try

I make big things out of little things
And I watch you keep missing them
You don't get why it's killing me
Every time you mess this up
Set myself on fire, to keep us warm
Swear I lose my mind watching you ignore
All the little things, the little things
Mean so much more
Yeah, they mean so much more

All the little things, all the little things, all the little things
Yeah, they mean so much more
All the little things, all the little things

I make big things out of little things
And I watch you keep missing them
You don't get why it's killing me
Every time you mess it up
Set myself on fire, to keep us warm
Swear I lose my mind watching you ignore
All the little things, the little things
Mean so much more
Yeah, they mean so much more
