Hate Me

Blue October

1. I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
   They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
   Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
   Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
   
2. There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
   An ounce of peace is all I want for you. Will you never call again?
   And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?
   And will you never try to reach me? It is I that wanted space

R: Hate me today
   Hate me tomorrow
   Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
   Hate me in ways
   Yeah ways hard to swallow
   Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you

*: And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
   Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
   And like a baby boy I never was a man
   Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
   And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”
   Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
   And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”
   
R: Hate me today...
