Dont look around at the scenery today
'Cause you probably won't understand it
Don't settle down in a permanent way
'Cause you haven't the right to demand it
[Refrain]
I'm writin' you a hate song
I don't wanna have to hold your hand
I'm writin' you a hate song
And I'm hopin' that you'll understand
Let it be said that it hasn't been said
When there wasn't the will to unearth it
Relive the germs to awaken the worms
Just to ask them if its worth it
So lets get one thing straight:
The halls have narrowed, leaving aphids in the marrow
[Refrain]
So you say "So"
And I say "What"
And the difference ain't worth debating
I never wanted to be mud in the face
But I couldn't have known what was waiting
(I couldn't have known what was waiting)
(I couldn't have known what was waiting)
[Refrain]
I'm writing you a hate song
I don't wanna...
No, I don't wanna...
I'm writin' you a hate song
I don't wanna...
No, I don't wanna...
No, I don't wanna... [x6]
