Addition by Subtraction - Lyrics

Can’t figure somethin’ if there’s nothin’ tthere to figure out
Girl stop lookin’ at me like I’m Calculus 3
Way back somebody broke your heart in two, you’re bound to never forget
And now your only plan of action is addition by subtractin’ me

I can’t blame ya
I’ve done the same, love
It’s just the nature
Of self-preservation
Ya hide ya feelin’s
From the next danger
But the next danger…
It ain’t me.

I
Ain’t just a number in your phone
That you get rid of
When you wanna move on
It’s a shame
What happened
But don’t let a good thing
Die in it’s shadow

Factor out attraction and you’ll get the answer you’re lookin’ for
This is less arithmetic, this is more a social war
You and your gossip girls been sippin’ from the rumor mill… thirsty
And you’ve been separated from the truth so long that you forgot what it is

I can’t blame ya
I’ve done the same, love
It’s just the nature
Of self-preservation
Ya hide ya feelin’s
From the next danger
But the next danger…
It ain’t me.

I
Ain’t just number in your phone
That you get rid of
When you wanna move on
It’s a shame
What happened
But don’t let a good thing
Die in it’s shadow

Hold on, Hold on
Hold on, Hold on
Hold on, Hold on
Hold on, Hold on

I
Was a number in your phone
That you got rid of
When your heart got broke
You’re not the only one
Who’s hurtin
But you’re the only one
I wanna make this work with
