Our mothers and fathers, I guess we forgot 'em
Give them a bottle
Can't tell what they're saying, always pacing, always praying
How long they staying?
Seal up the door frame, ten years of white rain
In comes the water
Only so much you can take of everyday heartbreak
Little by little

Little by little, you don't come around
Little by little, you go underground
Little by little
Little by little, come apart at the seams
Little by little, turn into dust and dreams
Little by little

I don't really know him, I don't really need to
But you should eat what feeds you
Every tiny ask, every single nibble
Boy, it'll kill you
Get up the fighting weight, I'm taking you on a date
Fuck it, I can't wait
You're either with me or you're not, feels like you forgot
Little by little

Little by little, you don't come around
Little by little, you go underground
Little by little
Little by little, come apart at the seams
Little by little, turn into dust and dreams
Little by little

Little by little, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh, oh
I'll let you down
Little by little, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh, oh
I won’t make a sound
Little by little, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh, oh
I’ll let you down
Little by little, uh-oh, uh-oh, oh, oh
I won’t make a sound

Little by little, you don't come around
Little by little, you go underground
Little by little
Little by little, come apart at the seams
Little by little, turn into dust and dreams
Little by little

Little by little, you don't come around
Little by little, you go underground
Little by little
Little by little, come apart at the seams
Little by little, turn into dust and dreams
Little by little
