I hate you
But I can't

You act like I'm nothing
But then come back

I wish I was prettier
Or was cuter in every way

Maybe you wouldn't just flirt with me
Maybe you'd actually stay

I wish I wasn't fat
And I wish I was slim

Not too skinny
Not too thin

I just want to feel like you want me
Not just cause I'm desperate

I just hate calling
And you saying later

Then it's 12:00am
And I still get no call

I fall asleep
You get angry with me

I guess that's how it works
How it all goes

I'll just keep digging a hole
And you can keep saying

It's not a game
It's not a will

Maybe if you'd want me
You'd sit still

Maybe if I was cute
You'd never leave

Maybe if I wasn't depressed
Maybe if it was just you and me

Maybe it's me
Maybe I'm what's wrong

Cause before you had girls crawling
Cause I wasn't there

But you say I push them away
Now that I'm here

But what do I expect
You end our calls

Random times only
Just to wait till later

While I'm asleep after crying
From holding in the pain

Maybe it's simple
Maybe it's a game
