After School Trauma Club - I'd Hate To Be You (And I Am Me) Lyrics

You were everything I wanted, I want things all the time
The heart on my sleeve gets burned off, no surprise
Haunted by the nightmares that you put inside my mind
You were everything I wanted, I want things all the time
Baby, you're not perfect, but I know neither am I
But your imperfections they cut deeper than mine
Well, maybe it's hindsight or maybe I got wise
I just need some excuse to explain this wild ride
So sick of waking up in the middle of the night
You're the one I used to love, I'm the one you left behind
There's good in me, at least I'd like to believe
But I'd hate to be you, and I am me
Razor sharp tongue, pressed hard against your cheek
Slicing up your words as your mouth starts to bleed
Your guts begin to spill and now I see inside
Fingers letting go of your knife left in my spine
You were my obsession, but I've opened my eyes
I let your reflection distort all of my lines
I'm left untangling the knots you tried to bind
A victim of circumstance? Or was this by design?
So sick of waking up in the middle of the night
You're the one I used to love, I'm the one you left behind
There's good in me, at least I'd like to believe
But I'd hate to be you, and I am me
Too young to learn old tricks, never thought it'd come to this
It's funny how, I used to think it gets better, but it never did
I was taught to take the love I am given, even if it's not deserved
Remove the trace of your scent from my clothes
Move on to the next one
(Move on to the next one)
Rough and callous, couldn't care less
I'm breaking down; it's not enough
To be the one you used to love
(Move on to the next one)
Rough and callous, couldn't care less
I'm breaking down; it's not enough
To be the one you used to love
So sick of waking up in the middle of the night
You're the one I used to love, I'm the one you left behind
There's good in me, at least I'd like to believe
But I'd hate to be you, and I am me
I'd hate to be
And I am me
