THE LYRICS:
You
could never love me
You could never even love yourself
Why did you just say that you do
I am not some plastic doll
Like all the other fools you hang around
I only play your clown
Why
did you say you love me
You know you don’t really care for me
And I’d rather have no one
Than your shallow sympathy
And if I cannot have you as a lover
I will take you as a friend
When you say you don’t care
That’s when I pretend
All it is is pretend
Chorus:
Cause you could never love yourself
You could never love anyone around you
But next to you is where I wanna be
Maybe you love yourself too much
Think there’s white light all around you
Come and share some of your bitterness with me.
When
you said you loved me
I asked what you’d do
If I never talked to you again
You said “it would be weird”
And that was all you said
I wish I could slam down my phone
And have the courage to tell you
Leave me alone
But I don’t think that I
Really want you to go
Repeat Chorus
We
don’t hang up till midnight
And I hate myself for letting you take me on
a ride
I said I didn’t love you
But you know that I lied
You take me for granted
My love, for you
You know no matter what you say
I’ll believe it’s all true
The I love you you said
Was better left unsaid
Repeat Chorus
