You’re either a liar or a pretender
Maybe I’m seeking comfort in the familiar
When I let you link our fingers together
Like it’s something we have done before
‘I hate you’
I must be truly alone
To cling to the these lies from you
Wishing they were true
Seeking an anchor
Like slipping a hand through the bars of a cell
Give me something to hold
I’m too tired to care if it’s real
‘I hate you’
Give me your comfort, as empty as it is
Even though I don’t forgive
You, for ruining what this could have been
Now you have the nerve to stand there
With your empty claims
Haunting me with words I’ve dreamed
Now all they bring me is pain
Because I would give anything
‘I love you’
So, I’m clinging to the echo of a memory
That never got the chance to live
As I cling to your hand, like that would make it real
I wish I could let go
I wish I didn’t crave the last thing
I want to want
I wish it weren’t that I had nothing left
I can’t bear to lose you too
When I hate you
I hate you
I… I love you
I love you
But I can’t bear to tell you
