I'm burning the letters you wrote to me
In a fire that I will not forget
I'm saying goodbye in my own way
And turning that love into a hate
There's a madness that comes with letting go
And wanting something you could never hold
Forgive me if I'm giving up
But we both know you can't truely hate something you've never loved
[Chorus]
I hate the way you bring me down
I hate the things you say to me
I hate the way you make me feel today
But you're the drug I need
[x2]
I'm tired of trying to put a smile on your face
You just keep on reaching
But some things never change
There's a sadness I feel with knowing you
And a heartache that comes with the things you do
I guess that I'm just a fool
All I have is my hate now
You wanna take that too
[Chorus]
I'm dreaming of yesterdays when your smile was everywhere
And maybe I'm saving the best of me for someone who really cares
So I'm writing some words today to help me find my way
And maybe you'll never understand that my hate is all I really have today
[Chorus]
I hate the way you bring me down
I hate the things you say to me
I hate the way you make me feel today.
[x 2]
