What would you do if i said i hate you
would you break down and cry
would it be goodbye
or would it be as simple as "oh i hate you too"
would it be my worst nightmare
or just the second worst
or would it end different, so id be leaving in a hearse
i fear liars
so i lie in return
i fear rejection
so i reject them all
i fear love
so i hate most
they could be amazing
but to me they are barely worth pitying
you could change the world
if you would just wake up
if you would just step out of your shadow
they say i hide
they say i dont try
they say i dont care
well hey theyre right
maybe he knew me after all
that old folk die hard
damn hippies
just when you think you didnt want to try
they wake you up
play a stupid song
and put life back in your eyes
What would you do if i told you i hate you
would you break down and cry
would it be goodbye
or would it be as simple as "oh i hate you too"
you lie so much
i dont know the truth
you hide so much
i cant see you
you try so much
ill never meet you
a few times a lifetime
you find somebody who clicks
if life is a puzzle
theyre the piece thats missing
though they might not be the only one
if you were to welcome deaths embrace
i would soon follow
if i went first
none would bother
if you died id be distraught
if i died youd live on
i want to spit it out
this pride of mine
but i give up some
i lose it all
and i cannot get rid
of whats always held me tall
but if youll help me stand
i can lose a few inches
