Little More Love

(album: The Optimist - 2020)

Take a hit, it'll help you calm down
I know that you're tired
Don't you wanna be one of the cool kids now?
One of the cool kids now
Get a grip, everybody gets around
Pull that dress a little higher
Everybody's doing just a little more now
Just a little more now

Hurry up, hurry up, make your choice
No one's gonna hear your voice
All of this anxiety creeping up inside of me
Stop

We just need a little more love
People taking care of each other
You're my sister, you are my brother
We just need a little more love
Starve the hate and feed the kindness
Put all of the fear behind us
We just need a little more love, love
Just a little more, just a little more, just a little more

Everybody knows that boys don't cry
Just keep it all inside you
You don't wanna show no one your weakness now
'Cause it's not allowed
They laugh at what you're wearing and it's way overdone
Now you're holding back tears while you're holding a gun
If anyone would listen, even just once, think what could be done
Think what could be done

Hurry up, hurry up, make some noise
Someone's gonna hear your voice
All of this anxiety creeping up inside of me
Stop

We just need a little more love
People taking care of each other
You're my sister, you are my brother
We just need a little more love
Starve the hate and feed the kindness
Put all of the fear behind us
We just need a little more love (Just a little more love)
Love (Just a little more love)
Just a little more, just a little more, just a little more
We just need a little more love (Just a little more love)
Love (Just a little more love)
Just a little more, just a little more, just a little more

Shine your light
'Cause you never know
Who's in the darkness
Please, don't be heartless
Shine your light
'Cause only heaven knows
When someone's hurting
It's always worth it

We just need a little more love
People taking care of each other
You're my sister, you are my brother
We just need a little more love
Starve the hate and feed the kindness
Put all of the fear behind us
We just need a little more love (Just a little more love)
Love (Just a little more love)
Just a little more, just a little more, just a little more
We just need a little more love (Just a little more love)
Love (Just a little more love)
Just a little more, just a little more, just a little more
