[Intro] (Spoken, theatrical, a half-laugh) I said I'd be good this time. But good is boring. And I'm never boring. [Verse 1] I knew you'd be there, hand on a glass I'd pretend not to ask About her, about them, who you came with I'm getting good at ignoring the same shit Two years and a haircut, nothing has changed Except I still know every crack in your frame The way you stand, weight on one side Like you're waiting for something you know you can't hide [Pre-Chorus] And I know I should probably just walk away But my body won't move and my mouth's gonna say [Chorus] Hate me, I know that you want to Hate me, I know that you want to Hate me, I know that you want to Hate me, I know that you want to (Repeat Chorus as needed, shifting emotional tone each time) [Verse 2] Just me, or does he look like a movie In that jacket I bought him when I was moody? He's wearing it now, doesn't remember The night I gave it to him in December I'm counting the minutes, counting the drinks Counting the ways I'm over the brink Of a guy who said my laugh was too loud Hated him then, but I want him right now [Pre-Chorus] And I know I should probably just walk away But my body won't move and my mouth's gonna say [Chorus] Hate me, I know that you want to Hate me, I know that you want to Hate me, I know that you want to Hate me, I know that you want to [Bridge] (Spoken-sung, rapid-fire, breathless) What if I stay, what if I go What if I tell you I already know That you're not the one, that you're not the guy But I'm still here and I don't know why [Outro] (Fading, exhausted, spoken) Hate me, I know that you want to... ...and I'm sorry I'm still here, sorry I still care You'll be fine and I'll be nowhere in the meantime Guess I'll see you at the CVS.
