Hate Me For This

Drive you home before dark

Just to sit outside your parents' house for hours

Before letting you walk in

Guess I could've told myself then—already letting you go

You said I look like the girl from your favorite TV show

I held on to that feeling, like you were my one shot at living

You're gonna hate me for this—

I only loved you to feel normal

Tell myself to dry my tears this time

I don't know why I feel the need to treat

Being loved like it's a crime

It takes me a minute, but you feel like mine

For once, to know, I could be human without keeping my eyes closed

You're gonna hate me for this—

I only loved you to feel normal
