I hate you. But I love you.

I LOVE MITSKI. I ALSO LOVE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA.

I LOVE MITSKI. 

Real men don't need other people, and
Real men suck it in
Real men don't flinch or bleed in public
Oh, I think I'm a real manLittle boys cry and look around for comfort
And always get what they want
Little boys see toys and say "I can take that!"
Oh, you are my little boyThough honestly, sir
All I wanna do is get naked in front of you
So you can look me up and down and tell me
"Well done, girl, you're looking good"Real men keep cool in the face of a fire
Go down with the ship
And real men don't eat
'Cause they're above that, damn it
Oh, I'm gonna be a real manThough honestly, sir
All I wanna do is get naked in front of you
So you can look me up and down
And give me your love for being so goodBut little boys hold me, color me
Praise me, make me feel lovely
For a little while
So little boy, say you want me
'Cause, well, I can't take it
Go ahead
Do it, do it

I get mean when I'm nervous like a bad dog
I get mean when I'm nervous like a bad dog
I want to jump into blue water
And I miss riding horses, I miss running fast
I miss riding horses, I miss running fast
I was meant for running fast
I pretended you were mine, It made me calm babeI am cruel, I am gentle, I can make you laugh
I am cruel, I am gentle, I can make you laugh
I've loved many boys, I've loved many girls
I don't think about the past, it's always there anyway
Don't think about the past, always there anywayAnd I will never die, I will never die
I will never die, I will never die
I will never die, I will never die
I will never die, I will never dieI've preemptively blocked all the exits
I've preemptively blocked all the exits
So I will burn this movie theater, hey

All of our love filling all of our room
Your low warm voice curses
As you find the string to strike within me
That rings out a note heard in heavenHeaven, heaven
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oohNow I bend like a willow thinking of you
Like a murmuring brook curving about you
As I sip on the rest of the coffee you left
A kiss left of youHeaven, heaven, heaven
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-oohHear the storm dances outside
Something set free is running through the night
And the dark awaits us all around the corner
But here, in our place we have for the day
Can we stay a while and listen for heaven?
HeavenOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

I want you
I hold one card
That I can't use
But I want youYou're coming back
And it's the end of the world
We're starting over and I love you darlin'
And I am done, dearYou're in the house
And I am here in the car
I just need a quiet place
Where I can scream how I love youI found you
I found the door
But when I stepped through
There was no floorYou're coming back
And it's the end of the world
We're starting over and I love you darlin'
And I am done, dearYou're in the house
And I am here in the car
I just need a quiet place
Where I can scream how I love youI want you
I want you

RAOUL
No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.

Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.

CHRISTINE
Say you love me every waking moment,
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.

RAOUL
Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you. 

CHRISTINE
All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.

RAOUL
Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you need me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
Christine, that's all I ask of you

CHRISTINE
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
say the word and I will follow you.

TOGETHER
Share each day with me,
each night, each morning.

CHRISTINE
Say you love me!

RAOUL
You know I do.

RAOUL &
CHRISTINE
Love me, that's all I ask of you.

Anywhere you go, let me go too, *LOVE ME*
that's all I ask of you

PHANTOM
I gave you my music
Made your song take wing...
and now how you've repaid me:
denied me and betrayed me...
He was bound to love you when he heard you sing...
Christine
Christine

PHANTOM

all that the Phantom asked of you!
