i hate all you gave me
this deadly disease
when you tell me you loved me
words that you never mean
i'll admit i was childish
i don't know how to be
in love with you so much
when all you do is burn me
C
now we we lay in silence
what is there to say
when how much i hate you
keeps me wide awake
now we we lay here in silence
there's nothing to say
when how much i love you
means i can't stay away
these magnetic fields
cut straight to my heart
they're all i can hear now
that this love fell apart
i stopped taking the xanax
just like you asked
but you shouldn't come back
we know it won't last
there's things i remember
how soft you could be
you're still alone now
all alone with me
C
now we we lay in silence
what is there to say
when how much i hate you
keeps me wide awake
now we we lay here in silence
there's nothing to say
when how much i love you
means i can't stay away
two bodies in a bed
i can't hear you breathe
how could it be like this
you're all that i need
the less that we say
the more that gets said
holding onto your hand
goes straight to my head
i'm feeling so numb
it's all grey without you
i've never been one
to stop thinking about you
C
now we we lay in silence
what is there to say
when how much i hate you
keeps me wide awake
now we we lay here in silence
there's nothing to say
when how much i love you
means i can't stay away
i thought that i smelt
a hint of your perfume
the drug that you dealt
carry me back to your room
i stopped tearing my heart out
i just thought you should know

i know i gave you herpes
and that's really not ideal but
the herpes isn't half as bad
as how you make me feel
you're right, we're not together
it was fucked up to assume
that a girl who said she loved me
wasn't fucking other dudes
it's okay to do all the things you have done
but don't get upset if i think you're a cunt
it's okay to say that you're missing me, hon
but don't be surprised you're the only one
the one consistent thing with you is
inconsistency
and the only time i trust you's
when you're lying next to me
i don't know how to phrase this
dont want to be too obscene
but our next real conversation
will be in your fucking dreams
it's okay to do all the things you have done
but don't get upset if i think you're a cunt
it's okay to say that you're missing me, hon
but don't be surprised when you're the only one
i know that you'll start bitching
when i tell you that i'm done
if it hasn't worked out already
it's clear you're not the one
if you think that fucking crying
will get you some sympathy
you've misjudged the situation
and what all this music means
you know i'm writing songs about you
you seem to find it
but singing songs isn't enough
to stop you sucking cock
it's okay to do all the things you have done
but don't get upset if i think you're a cunt
it's okay to say that you're missing me, hon
but don't be surprised when you're the only one
since you think we should just be friends instead
don't get too mad when i leave you on read

although i'm not quite over you
i know i'll be someday
so i thank you for the memories
of nights we stayed awake
i hope one day i can think of you
without losing my mind
but i won't get there unless i can
leave my love behind
gotta leave my love behind
gotta leave my love behind
i know some day that i'll be over you
it's not so hard to think
but until then i'll just sit all alone
drowning myself in drink
i know the drinking isn't good for me
but what else can i do
when each sober thought i seem to have have
just leads me back to you
just leads me back to you
just leads me back to you
while i know it's time to move on now
can you tell that to my heart
it's been a while since you've been gone
so now's the time to start
gonna shout my lyrics from my room
gonna sing just like a bird
but i know my songs won't bring you back
not for all my little words
not for all my little words
not for all my little words
gonna take all that we built for us
and tear everything down
and from the dust i'll make a life
that'll make myself proud
it is a shame that we didn't have
an anniversary
but if we did i'd show you all that you
had really meant to me
i'd write you letters, songs and poems
that would make you cry to read
but as we know all my little words
cant force you to love me

i know you won't leave my room until we're done
talking about the reasons why you're not the one
we say that we'll be friends and that's fine with me
if you admit you know it's not all we should be
so we'll talk until dawn but it won't be enough
we can't ever find ourselves falling in love
yes i heard what you said the last half-dozen times
and yet every night ends with your lips on mine
we waste all our time saying we shouldn't speak
when it's all we can think about before we sleep
so we'll talk until dawn but it won't be enough
we can't ever find ourselves falling in love
i've lost count of the days where i needed your touch
after all we've been through is that asking for much
i know there's been days where you've needed me too
it won't take me too long to run right back to you
so we'll talk until dawn but it won't be enough
we can't ever stop ourselves from falling in love

take ecstasy with me
we can turn on the TV
and watch as all the world falls down
let's just sit here on my bed
while it takes over our heads
and our thoughts just spin around
let's pretend that we're in love
say the things we're dreaming of
though they'll never come true
run your fingers through my hair
soaked with sweat but you won't care
because for once so are you
i'll caress the parts of you
that i've always wanted to
now there's no need to be shy
listening to your beating heart
the world just screams and falls apart
and there's no reason why
take ecstasy with me
we can turn off the tv
pretend the world ain't over now

haven't shaved in nine days
haven't showered in four
and my carpet's getting dirty because i ash on the floor
now i've run out of weed
so i'll be buying some more
but i tell you it's the last time i'll be wasting a score
now my dealers getting lazy
he won't pick up the phone
but it's 4 in the morning so i can't really moan
i'll ask my friends for cash
i say i'm needing a loan
because i no longer feel comfortable in leaving my home
i've missed a couple lectures
need to catch up soon
and i'm missing out on groupwork cause i won't leave my room
now my group are getting angry
won't stop asking me why
i can never do anything in a reasonable time
haven't shaved in nine days
haven't showered in four
and my carpet's getting dirty because i ash on the floor
now i've run out of weed
so i'll be buying some more
but i tell you it's the last time i'll be wasting a score
i live off bacon sarnies
cigarettes and coffee
but i don't recall a time where i bought any of these
now my cupboards are empty
but food isn't free
and i'd rather not waste dosh i could be spending on weed
got an essay to write
on topics i should have learned
so every morning i try to write a couple of words
and by a couple of words
i mean a couple of words
my weeks work could be tweeted by a couple of birds
haven't shaved in nine days
haven't showered in four
and my carpet's getting dirty because i ash on the floor
now i've run out of weed
so i'll be buying some more
but i tell you it's the last time i'll be wasting a score
