under the rug

Mm, mm
No, you can't sweep it under the rug, no
Oh, ooh
Oh, ooh, oh
(Under the rug)
Been one for about nine months and
For six months, we've been so checked out
Don't listen, so distant
Tell me what that's all about
Deep down, I know we're done, but
I can't get it out my mouth (my, my, my)
But then I give the run around
Because I have a tendency to stay
Where I'm not meant to be
Running from responsibility
When it's mine
I stay blaming my empathy
'Cause I don't want no enemies
Usually, I brush it off
But sorry, not this time
I can't sweep it under the rug (if it ain't working, if it ain't worth it)
Can't be no kinda love (if you ain't certain, if it keeps hurtin')
We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf gathering dust
We gotta give it up (give it up)
Can't sweep it under the rug (the rug)
When I'm with the best intentions
Usually, I never would've mentioned (mentioned)
Little things that bothered me
But been there, done that (done that)
I usually would've waited
You made stuff overcomplicated (you did)
So now I put your feelings last
But still, it's hard
Because I have a tendency to stay (tendency)
Where I'm not meant to be (where I'm not meant to be)
Running from responsibility
When it's mine (mine, I stay)
I stay blaming my empathy
'Cause I don't want no enemies
Usually, I brush it off
But sorry, not this time
I, I can't sweep it under the rug (if it ain't working, yeah, if it ain't worth it)
Can't be no kinda love (if you ain't certain, if it keeps hurtin')
We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf gathering dust (mm)
We gotta give it up (give it up)
Can't sweep it under the rug (the rug)
There's no need for blame
We both feel the same
No regrets
It's time I said all there is to say
I know it's a shame
I can't sweep it under the rug (if it ain't working, if it ain't worth it)
Can't be no kinda love, yeah (if you ain't certain, if it keeps hurtin')
We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf (gathering dust)
We gotta give it up (give it up)
Can't sweep it under the rug (under the rug)
Can't sweep it under the rug (if it ain't working, if it ain't worth it)
Woah, ooh, rug, oh (if you ain't certain, if it keeps hurtin')
We ain't gotta leave it on the shelf (gathering dust)
We gotta give it up (give it up)
Can't sweep it under the rug (under the rug)
