Well I hate what I love about you
That encouragin smile is like a mile of disappointment to prove
Think I want to see you cryin and then retreat behind the close of your eyes
But the devil’s sittin here on my shoulder and he’s tellin me lies
Well I hate what I love about you
Well I hate what I love about you
Your eyes are always lyin awake though I’m sleepin til noon
I got something in my skull that makes me sick, but in a different way
And my shoulders are cavin in with despair, it’s an affair with decay
Well I hate what I love about you
Why you with me now?
You know there ain’t no doin right by me babe
I’m a road to nowhere
Because I need you in a way that I could never give it back
The way I love you girl, it’s like a heart attack, it’s cause of you
You know it’s true
But let me tell it to you anyway
Well I hate what I thought you loved in me
Cause what I am is never the man who I wanted to be
I got this weight I can’t shake and my feet they won’t hold to the ground
I got mouths that need feedin and their eyes they just keep pushin me down, down
Well I hate what I love about you
Well I hate what I love about you
Well I hate what I love about you
Well I hate what I love about you
