these lies

[Verse 1]

I hate to think of you again

I hate the freckles on your skin

Hate your hair 'cause it was blonde

And the list goes on and on

[Chorus]

Hate the way that you look, hate the way that you smile

Hate the way that you laugh, hate the way that you cry

Hate the way that I have to tell all of these lies

Just to make myself happy

Hate the way that you talk to yourself in your sleep

And the distance you go for your hopes and your dreams

Hate the way that I have to tell all of these lies

Just to make myself happy

[Verse 2]

Moving on is harder than I ever thought it would be

Trying not to think of you is harder than it should be

You're amazing and I hate it 'cause I know I wasn't

Maybe now I'll be the man you always thought I could be

[Bridge]

One, two, out the door, girl, you left, I hit the floor

Lying, left with nothing to lose

Now three, four, overdose, wish that I could pull you close

But right now, I can't handle the truth

[Chorus]

Hate the way that you look, hate the way that you smile

Hate the way that you laugh, hate the way that you cry

Hate the way that I have to tell all of these lies

Just to make myself happy

Hate the way that you talk to yourself in your sleep

And the distance you go for your hopes and your dreams

Hate the way that I have to tell all of these lies

Just to make myself happy

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Outro]

Hate the way that you look, hate the way that you smile

Hate the way that you laugh, hate the way that you cry

Hate the way that I have to tell all of these lies

Just to make myself happy
