Lyrics: Unlearn by Abrams, Gracie
Excuse my French But every time you turn your phone around I just kind of lose my Lose my shit Thinking it's another me Hanging on the other line I'm fine I keep bringing all my problems to a pillow fight And I'm Just trying to get to you But it's not your fault No it's not your fault No it's not your fault, no no 'Cause if I'm gonna learn how to love you I need to unlearn how to love too Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right Oh my God I'm trying If I'm gonna learn how to choose you I need to unlearn what I'm used to Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right Oh my God I'm trying Excuse my mouth But every time you run a little late Hanging with your friends, I Freak the fuck out Then you come home And your kiss tastes like mine I'm fine I keep bringing all my problems to a pillow fight And I'm Just trying to get to you But it's not your fault No it's not your fault No it's not your fault, no no 'Cause if I'm gonna learn how to love you I need to unlearn how to love too Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right Oh my God I'm trying If I'm gonna learn how to choose you I need to unlearn what I'm used to Need to unlearn how to run when it feels right Oh my God I'm trying
