This is the first single off of Blue October's 2006 release "Foiled". It's an
"Hate Me"
Blue October
Intro:
I have to block out thoughts of you
so I dont lose my head
they crawl in like a cockroach
leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape
To remind me I'm alone
Playing movies in my head
That make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride
A nervous bleeding in my brain
And ounce of pieces is all I want for you
Will you never call again
And will you never say that you loved me
Just to put it in my face
Will you never try to reach me
It is I that wanted space
Hate Me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
I'm sober now for 3 whole months
It's one accomplishment that you helped me with
One thing that always tore us apart
Is the one that I won't touch again
In a sick way I want to thank you
For holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars with myself
You were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinions
On things like suicide or hate
You made me compliment myself
When it was way too hard to take
So I'll drive so fucking far away
That I never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart
To leave me behind
Hate Me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things
I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
I'm kicking shadows in the street for every mistake that I make
Like a baby boy I never was a man
Til I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And the I found I'm yelling make it go away
just make it stop and let it shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered "how can you do this to me?"
Hate Me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things
I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
