  • I hate you I love you
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to, but I can't put
    Nobody else above you
    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    Feeling used, but I'm
    Still missing you and I can't
    See the end of this just wanna feel your kiss
    Against my lips and now all this time
    Is passing by, but I still can't seem to tell you why
    It hurts me every time I see you
    Realize how much I need you

    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to, but I can't put
    Nobody else above you
    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    Oh oh, keep it on the low
    You're still in love with me but your friends don't know
    If u wanted me you would just say so
    And if I were you, I would never let me go
    I don't mean no harm, I just miss you on my arm
    Wedding bells were just alarms caution tape around my heart
    I miss you when I can't sleep
    Or right after coffee or right when I can't eat
    I miss you in my front seat
    Still got sand in my sweaters from nights we don't remember
    Do you miss me like I miss you?
    Fucked around and got attached to you
    Friends can break your heart too
    And I'm always tired but never of you
    When love and trust are gone
    I guess this is moving on
    Everyone I do right does me wrong
    So every lonely night, I sing this song

    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to, but I can't put
    Nobody else above you
    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her

    All alone I watch you watch her
    Like she's the only girl you've ever seen
    You don't care you never did
    You don't give a damn about me
    Yeah all alone I watch you watch her
    She's the only thing you've ever seen
    How is it you never notice
    That you are slowly killing me

    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I love you
    Don't want to, but I can't put
    Nobody else above you
    I hate you I love you
    I hate that I want you
    You want her, you need her
    And I'll never be her Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind

  • Alex from SchwitzerlandThe song is about a young and desperate love. She believes that her love is unrequited but as we see it is not true. However she doesn't know that he must think about her all the time. It seems like a nightmare because both feel the same but obviously they are walking on another path. As we see in the chorus, she doesn't really know how she should feel. On the one hand she loves him on the other hand she hates him. I think something terrible happend between them and now she isn't sure if she should forgive him. In my opinion the other girl who is mentioned is the reason why. I don't really know if they will be together because she thinks she isn't good enough anymore. Maybe they find their way if they both jump over their shadow and he can heal her stiches. But he already moved on and that could be the problem that they will never reach the same target in live.
