falling for you's never neat
it makes me feel incomplete
falling for you's not that great
it makes me procrastinate
but you don't like the way I'm falling
from my sheltered sky
you say that I'm intruding
but I'm only perishing

chorus:
please don't sweat the love thang between you and me
we can do the friend thing temporarily
please don't sweat the love thang between you and me
we can do the friend thing temporarily

falling for you never works
cuz it's more trouble than it's worth
falling for you's not ok
it just makes things slip away
the only rain that's really falling
is the rain from your cloudy sky
you call it your darkest hour
but it's only just a shower

chorus

I have no food on my table
and I've no food on my shelf
and I can't love you until I love myself
and I can't love you until I love myself
I can't love you until I love myself

and we play that game where I turn around and fall and you're supposed to catch me
you barely catch me where my shoulders meet my arms
you should catch with the claws you always seem to scratch me
you're the cat and I'm your ball of yarn

chorus

I have no food on my table
and I've no food on my shelf
and I can't love you until I love myself
and I can't love you until I love myself
and I can't love you until I love myself
and I can't love you until I love myself
