Little Hell Lyrics

What if I can't be all that you need me to be?
We've got a good thing going, we have some promises to keep
But my addiction, it can be such a detriment
Please believe in this my dear, I am more than penitent

What if everything's just the way that it will be?
Could it be that I am meant to cause you all this grief?
My warship's a-lying off the coast of your delicate heart
And my aim is steady and true as it's been right from the start

There's a degree of difficulty in dealing with me
From my haunted past comes a daunting task of living through memories
If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall
Stare into the past, and forget it all

So when we leave it'll be a quick midnight escape
We'll disconnect ourselves from all of yesterday
I'll dig for water and fashion our very own wishing well
Then, we'll throw our coins down hoping to rid us of this little hell

There's a degree of difficulty in dealing with me
From my haunted past comes a daunting task of living through memories
If we could just hang a mirror on the bedroom wall
Stare into the past, and forget it all

Will we get out of this little hell?
Will we get out of this little hell?
Will we get out of this little hell?
Will we get out of this little hell?

What is the Meaning of Little Hell?

Ever wondered what it's like to carry the weight of past mistakes while trying to nurture love? This song dives into the struggle of being imperfect in a relationship, haunted by memories and personal demons. The lyrics reveal a deep sense of guilt and the fear of not being enough for one's partner. With a touch of vulnerability, the singer acknowledges the difficulty of navigating through these emotional complexities. Imagery of warships and wishing wells illustrates the turmoil and the desire to escape the "little hell" they're living in. The longing to leave behind the pain and start fresh with a late-night getaway brings a glimmer of hope. Ultimately, it's a heartfelt plea for understanding and a chance to move forward, despite the shadows of the past.
