[Verse 1]
So you're deep like the ocean
And got your bottles of potion
I believe in karma
Set the waves into motion

[Pre-Chorus]
Cold, cold, cold, cold hands over me
Fuck, fuck, fuck some sense into me
Gold for loneliness, I will pay
Fuck, fuck some sense into me

[Chorus]
The struggle is real
When you don’t tell me how you feel 'bout this love
The struggle is real
When you don’t tell me how you feel 'bout this love
The struggle is real

[Verse 2]
So you got all the answers
Hold the reigns on your dancer
Pull me underwater
Tell 'em nobody gets hurt

[Pre-Chorus]
Cold, cold, cold, cold hands over me
Fuck, fuck, fuck some sense into me
Gold for loneliness, I will pay
Fuck, fuck some sense into me

[Chorus]
The struggle is real
When you don’t tell me how you feel 'bout this love
The struggle is real
When you don’t tell me how you feel 'bout this love
The struggle is real

[Bridge]
I've got my way with words
Don’t believe me
Pretend like I don't hurt
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
I've got my way with pain
Don’t believe me
I numb myself to blame
I don’t, I don’t, I don’t
Don't, oh-oh
Don't believe me, yeah, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
Cold, cold, cold, cold hands over me
Fuck, fuck some sense into me

[Chorus]
The struggle is real
When you don’t tell me how you feel 'bout this love
The struggle is real
When you don’t tell me how you feel 'bout this love
The struggle is real

Tove Lo

Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson, professionally known as Tove Lo (pronounced Too-veh-Lu), is a Swedish singer-songwriter born and raised in Djursholm, Sweden.

She first rose to prominence for her single, “Habits (Stay High)“, which became a top ten hit in the U.S. a year after its 2013 release, a dark breakup anthem that generated such Internet buzz that it led to a deal with Universal. “Habits“ and its follow-up, “Out of Mind“, appeared on her debut EP Truth Serum, in 2014.

Later that year, her debut album, Queen of the Clouds, arrived, featuring “Habits“. The album was a Top 10 hit in Sweden and a Top 20 hit in the U.S. and U.K., and the subsequent single “Talking Body“ was a similar success.
