I hate how much power I have over you And that I choose not to use it I hate that you say I don't ask for things When, in truth, I'm selfish I hate how you see what I want you to And you never try to look past it I hate seeing you happy Knowing that I will never be I hate watching you have fun And that I have no such freedom I hate how I can never be as good as you And believe me, I've tried life on that side I hate how you can just go with the flow While I'm struggling keep up and not to drown I hate it when you're nice to me When I've done nothing to deserve your kindness I hate you for saying I'm a good person When, in truth, I'm just a cynical wretch I hate how much I've had to go through And that I just keep walking like nothing's wrong I hate how you loved the lie And never the real me. But I love how you won't give up on me Even if I hate to say it
