Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Bury me standing under your window
With this cinder block in hand
Yeah, 'cause no one will ever feel like this again
And if I could move, I'm sure it would only be to crawl
Back to you, I must have dragged my guts a block
They were gone by the time we (Talked)
[Chorus]
Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my
Self, but know that I could crush you with my voice
Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my
Self, you know that I could crush you with my voice
[Post-Chorus]
Stood on my roof and tried to see you
Forgetting about me
Hide the details, I don't want to know a thing
[Verse 2]
I hate the way you say my name
Like it's something secret
My pen is the barrel of the gun
Remind me which side you should be on
[Chorus]
Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my
Self, but know that I could crush you with my voice
Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my
Self, you know that I could crush you with my voice
[Post-Chorus]
Stood on my roof and tried to see you
Forgetting about me
Hide the details, I don't want to know a thing
[Bridge]
I wish that I was as invisible as you make me feel
I wish that I was as invisible as you make me feel
(Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my)
(Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my)
(One, two, three, four!)
[Chorus]
Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my
Self, but know that I could crush you with my voice
Woah, I want to hate you half as much as I hate my
Self, you know that I could crush you with my voice
