I have been hurting the ones I love
Since I emerged from the warmth of the womb
Frigid breath and turgid pride
Have been all I have offered the world

Let me a tell you story.
I was happy for a couple of days at one time
It was much like a dream
But I didn't wake up sweating and curled up
On the corner of my bed

You didn't think I was boring
You didn't act like a ghost
You were extraordinarily selfless
And I was the one thing in this world you loved most

I didn't drink all alone at night
I had friends and we laughed
I wasn't high every morning
I had no reason to be ashamed of my past

You didn't pull away when I kissed you
You looked me straight in the face
You had my sick sense of humor
You weren't so comfortable in empty space

I didn't shake when I spoke to you
I felt strong and I was smart
I had good reason to tell the truth
We weren't 2,000 miles apart

What am I going to do
Now that you've given up?
You said some things will never change
You think I can't be the one you love

But you're the only thing I don't hate.
You think I can't be the one you love
But you're the only thing I don't hate.
You think I can't be the one you love
But you are the only thing I don't hate.
