[Verse 1]
Do you think about me as much as I think about you?
It makes me sick 'cause I'd get bored of me too
And do you flinch at all when someone says my name?
And how's the healing if you never felt the break?
[Chorus]
'Cause I was falling faster, what a disaster
Caught in the thunder, pulling me under
That's not what love is
No, that's not what love is
You know I still feel bitter, I sleep with the shivers
Grab me up and shut you out
Don't let you creep back in 'cause it feels like a fever
And I don't want to catch the cold
[Verse 2]
Do you think about me as much as I hope you do?
We were nothing serious, I'm nothing much to lose for you
But you don't care at all when someone says my name
So I think it's easier to forget than go insane
[Chorus]
'Cause I was falling faster, what a disaster
Caught in the thunder, pulling me under
That's not what love is
No, that's not what love is
You know I still feel bitter, I sleep with the shivers
Grab me up and shut you out
Don't let you creep back in 'cause it feels like a fever
And I don't want to catch the cold
I don't want to catch the cold
I don't want to catch the cold
I don't want to catch the cold
[Chorus]
'Cause I was falling faster, what a disaster
Caught in the thunder, pulling me under
That's not what love is
No, that's not what love is
You know I still feel bitter, I sleep with the shivers
Grab me up and shut you out
Don't let you creep back in 'cause it feels like a fever
And I don't want to catch the cold
I don't want to catch the cold
[Outro]
You know I still feel bitter, I sleep with the shivers
Grab me up and shut you out
Don't let you creep back in 'cause it feels like a fever
And I don't want to catch the cold
