I Hate Myself
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
My so-called friends all quit without a kiss goodbye
Everybody thinks i'm a creep (and so do i)
I think they all think that i'm insane
You're the weak link in my chain
I'll climb on your cross,
Go ahead and crucify me
Because i hate myself
'cos i want you
I hate myself
I'm a one-man wrecking crew
You're so bad for me, i'm like a dead man walking
So let's connect real soon and get 'em all talking
We'll circle the wagons around your bed
And prove i'm right with everything i said
I hate myself
'cos i want you
I hate myself
I'm a one-man wrecking crew
Damn the danger, the scandal too
Burn me down, i'm black and blue
I hate myself
But i want you
I hate myself
(i hate myself)
I hate myself
(i hate myself)
Because i hate myself
'cos i want you
I hate myself
I'm a one-man wrecking crew
You're bad for me, i'm bad for you
My big breakdown, your big breakthrough
I hate myself
But i want you
