i hate it

I've become an image of myself

Nothing more than stubborn, sticky clay

I've never been this deep in love before

And I hate every moment I'm awake

Hate the way you look at me and smile

Hate the way I want to walk with you straight down the aisle

I'm known for cynicism

Not for sap

And I hate how you've caught me in your trap

Hold me a little closer

Stay for a bit

I wanna scream, but I'll save it

Kiss me a little longer

Then that's it

Best with you to play it cool than risk it

Back again, I tumble and I fall

All the clichéd turn of phrases that I can recall

That's how I feel about you, oh, and dear

Oh my God, I hate it when you're near

Hold me a little closer

Stay for a bit

I wanna scream, but I'll save it

Kiss me a little longer

Then that's it

Best with you to play it cool than risk it

Back again, I tumble and I fall

All the clichéd turn of phrases that I can recall

That's how I feel about you, oh, and dear

Oh my God, I hate it when you're near
