i hate u, i love u – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
feeling used
but i’m still missing u
& i can’t see the end of this
just wanna feel ur kiss
against my lips
& now all this time
is passing by
but i still can't seem to tell u why
it hurts me every time i see u
realize how much i need u
i hate u i love u
i hate that i love u
don't want to, but i can't put
nobody else above u
i hate u i love u
i hate that i want u
u want her, u need her
& i'll never be her
i miss u when i can't sleep
or right after coffee
or right when i can't eat
i miss u in my front seat
still got sand in my sweaters
from nights we don't remember
do u miss me like i miss u?
fucked around & got attached to u
friends can break ur heart too
i'm always tired but never of u
if i pulled a u on u, u wouldn't like that shit
i put this reel out, but u wouldn't bite that shit
i type a text but then i nevermind that shit
i got these feelings but u never mind that shit
oh oh, keep it on the low
ur still in love with me but ur friends don't know
if u wanted me u would just say so
& if i were u, i would never let me go
i don't mean no harm
i just miss u on my arm
wedding bells were just alarms
caution tape around my heart
u ever wonder what we could have been?
u said u wouldn't and u fucking did
lie to me, lie with me, get ur fucking fix
now all my drinks and all my feelings are all fucking mixed
always missing people that i shouldn't be missing
sometimes u gotta burn some bridges just to create some distance
i know that i control my thoughts and i should stop reminiscing
but i learned from my dad that it's good to have feelings
when love & 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 u i love u
i hate that i love u
don't want to, but i can't put
nobody else above u
i hate u i love u
i hate that i want u
u want her, u need her
& i'll never be her
all alone i watch u watch her
like she's the only girl u've ever seen
u don't care u never did
u don't give a damn about me
yeah all alone i watch u watch her
she's the only thing u ever see
how is it u never notice
that u are slowly killing me
i hate u i love u
i hate that i love u
don't want to, but i can't put
nobody else above u
i hate u i love u
i hate that i want u
u want her, u need her
& i'll never be her
