I remember what you said, that shit tore me to pieces That I was somethin' that you wanted but not really needed I used pray for someone like you could've sworn I was dreamin' Then I woke up and realized you were one of my demons Now I'm contemplatin' life and wonderin' what's ahead If it's without you, I might choose to not live it instead You gave me life and without you I fuckin' feel like I'm dead (Feel like I'm dead!) And as I'm writin' this song I'm currently trapped in my head And now it's dead weight, yeah, it hurts I don't understand why we just couldn't work (Why?) Wish that we could speak but I can't find words You know that I'm hurt, and you don't care and that just makes it worse (You don't care!) So when I see you smile I fill my cup and write another verse Battlin' myself and evil thoughts Tried to spend my life with you I didn't know what it would cost Should've never came to Cali, never opened up my heart Wish I never found love (Fuck this place!) 'cause I never would've lost This is every day, ask myself, "Why didn't she stay? " Lookin' up to heaven askin' God to take away this pain I know that I love you, and I know that you don't feel the same And that's what's killin' me inside and causin' me to go insane, fuck Said we're too different, told me we would never work Always put me second I would sprint but couldn't finish first Got too comfortable and let my guard down When you realized I did you took my feelings and you threw 'em in the fuckin' dirt Matchin' tattoos, I can't believe that you convinced me Now you're gone, and it's the only thing that keeps you here with me Yeah, I hate you, but I love you, you left but still see me If you needed it right now, I'd still give you my kidney I'm lost, can't see another woman, I'm blind And if I do, Gods gonna have to pry open my eyes You gon' laugh and say I'm weak until you realize and find That sharin' love is the meanin' and whole purpose of life And when you do and hear this song You will cry and sing along And realize that you don't wanna die old and alone And I'll be here still writin' on my phone isolated in my home Drunk, half-way gone screamin', "I still love you" (I swear) And wouldn't put no one above you (No one) Even though you fuckin' lied somethin' in me still trusts you I would die for you, kill for you, end my whole career They could cut off both my arms and I'd still find a way to hug you I don't mean to make this music but it's somethin' that I must do Fuck you! I motherfuckin' hate that I love you I only run to you 'cause I can't run from you You took my child away, he was my fuckin' son, too
I hate that I love you I hate that I love you
