[Chorus x2] If you're looking for love Get a heart made of steel cause you know that love k**s Don't go messing with love It'll hurt you for real, don't you know that love k**s? [Verse 1] Protect yourself cause you'll wreck yourself In this cold hard world, so check yourself You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself Til that one kind soul reveals itself Protect yourself cause you'll wreck yourself In this cold hard world, so check yourself You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself Til that one kind soul reveals itself [Chorus x2] [Bridge] And I know when you're into deep Use to think of me sometimes Stockholm syndrome in misery There's a penalty for love crimes [Verse 1] [Bridge] [Verse 2] Protect yourself cause you'll wreck yourself (If you're looking for love) In this cold hard world, cause you know that love k**s? You conceal your dreams and you shield yourself (Don't go messing with love) In this cold hard world, don't you know that love k**s?
