lyrics

I've got hate in my heart but I don't wanna hurt you
I'm going to bed cuz I don't wanna hurt you
I've got ten times the fear in me trying to throw this away

But things I can't reach
Are like the stories that you preach
And if you meant that you loved me
Then you should have called me back

Now my throat is raw and it seems like you'll hurt me
The water turns scarlet, you say you won't hurt me
It keeps gettin' the time that these people say
You've got to go away

They thought that you was jokin'
But I knew that you'd been tokin' and
They won't recognise me if I can make it
Through this night alone

I've got hate in my heart but I don't wanna lose you
I gave you my heart
Is that why I lose you?
