Emily James
Lost Cause
[Verse 1]
I really shouldn't think of you as an exception
Tell myself you were sleeping so you missed my message
And it's okay that what we are's a constant question
Anyway

[Verse 2]
Put down a boundary just to cross it back and kiss you
Losing in loopholes that I'm only gonna trip through
The logical part of my brain knows it's an issue
Anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm raising the sound on the TV
Try to drown out the way that I'm feeling

[Chorus]
I care too much and you try too little
I'm saying love and you're non-commital
I'm hanging on and I'm hoping it'll grow but I know it's a lost cause
Then there you go with your arms around me
Making it seem like you're not just lonely
And I pretend that it's me and me only, oh, but I know it's a lost cause

[Verse 3]
I really feel like there's something that you're rеsisting
You're scared of hurting so you keep it at a distance
That's what I tеll myself, it kinda makes a difference
Anyway
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm raising the sound on the TV
Try to drown out the way that I'm feeling

[Chorus]
I care too much and you try too little
I'm saying love and you're non-commital
I'm hanging on and I'm hoping it'll grow but I know it's a lost cause
Then there you go with your arms around me
Making it seem like you're not just lonely
And I pretend that it's me and me only, oh, but I know it's a lost cause

[Outro]
Can't help feeling like this might be something
Oh, but I know it's a lost cause
Dead end but I keep the car running
Oh, but I know it's a lost cause
There I go again making something out of nothing
Oh, but I know it's a lost cause
Dead end but I keep the car running
