Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There goes the best thing that ever happened to anyone
There goes a little Miss Forever and a Day
There goes a girl I was incredibly cruel to, I thought that she was in my way
The girl I adore
Oh, she don't wanna know me anymore
[Chorus]
Oh, I hate myself, I hate myself, I do
Oh, I hate myself so you don't have to
Oh, I hate myself, I hate myself, I do
I really hate myself, so you don't have to
[Verse 2]
There goes the best seven years of my life
There goes a girl who only saw me, not my influence or my wealth
There goes the only human being I have ever loved more than I hate myself
Well, I am sure
Oh, she don't wanna know me anymore
[Chorus]
Oh, I hate myself, I hate myself, I do
Oh, I hate myself so you don't have to
I hate myself, I hate myself, I do
I really hate myself, so you don't have to
[Bridge]
There goes the last of my inspiration
Here comes the pain I endure
'Cause she don't wanna know me anymore
[Chorus]
Oh, I hate myself, I hate myself, I do
Oh, I hate myself so you don't have to
Oh, I hate myself, I hate myself, I do
I really hate myself, so you don't have to
