lyrics

Bitter? Yeah, I’m bitter, with the echo, how there’s no one here
And how you shined them high beams, made me frozen, dear,
Ice veined, nothing nice in my life, like,
Always with the downpours, can I get a light rain?
-Nah, cause here the sun won’t rise,
Just picture Joe Budden’s Black Cloud riddled with some lightning,
Maybe it was for the best, did you do the right thing?
We were always fighting, maybe it was frightening,
-But maybe, baby, you just quit too quick,
Maybe I just chummed the waters and you bit too quick,
You showed your hand and you’re just too manipulative,
So I ain’t feeding into your ridiculousness,
Nah - keep your bullshit and your drama for a future ex,
Wonder what you’d do for love; I know what you’ll do for sex,
Truthfully I’m glad you’re gone, I strained and you never tried,
Live and learn, I just hope you know I

Hope you cry yourself to sleep, so you drown in your tears,
And your sorrow eats your soul alive, you are so despised,
So just, just crawl away and die already, just crawl away and die already,
Hope you cry yourself to sleep, so you drown in your tears,
And your sorrow eats your soul alive, you are so despised,
So just, just crawl away and die already, just crawl away and die already,
I hate you, I hate you, so much, that I’ve got nothing else to say to you,
Except I hate you, I hate you, too much, I’ve taken all that I can take, it’s true,
I’m saying too much, too many times and now I’m sick of it,
Bad taste up in my mouth, Black Licorice,
Too many times and now I’m sick of it,
Bad taste up in my mouth, Black Licorice.

Hate is such a strong word, ain’t it? But I’m sorry I’m not sorry it’s at you I aim it,
You’re a footnote in my story, you could‘ve been a chapter; but you’re not and it’s on you I blame it,
Uh, Yeah, Hate is such a strong word, ain’t it? But I’m sorry I’m not sorry it’s at you I aim it,
You’re a footnote in my story, you could‘ve been a chapter; but you’re not and it’s on you I blame it (I blame it).

Questions, people asking questions everywhere I go,
They ask me couldn’t you have stayed and I tell em no,
We put the ‘us’ in frustration and monotonous,
The elephant in the room’s fucking a hippopotamus,
Whenever we’re together, forever tethered to awkwardness,
Opposites, couldn’t make it grow, bad botanists,
Couldn’t make it fly, bad rocket-ship, toppled it
Stood on top of it and only then considered stopping it,
Uh, and I’m as much at fault as you,
Difference is, once we broke up, you started talking shit,
That left a bad taste, cause you’re such a sad waste,
Can’t afford a house, don’t throw stones from your glass case,
Cause if it shatters, you might lose an eye, over you and I,
And what sucks about that is you don’t need two to cry,
So just do yourself a favor, stop the useless lies,
You’re acting stupid, why? I hate you and your foolish pride.

Hate is such a strong word, ain’t it? But I’m sorry I’m not sorry it’s at you I aim it,
You’re a footnote in my story, you could‘ve been a chapter; but you’re not and it’s on you I blame it,
Uh, Yeah, Hate is such a strong word, ain’t it? But I’m sorry I’m not sorry it’s at you I aim it,
You’re a footnote in my story, you could‘ve been a chapter; but you’re not and

Hope you cry yourself to sleep, so you drown in your tears,
And your sorrow eats your soul alive, you are so despised,
So just, just crawl away and die already, just crawl away and die already,
Hope you cry yourself to sleep, so you drown in your tears,
And your sorrow eats your soul alive, you are so despised,
So just, just crawl away and die already, just crawl away and die already,
I hate you, I hate you, so much, that I’ve got nothing else to say to you,
Except I hate you, I hate you, too much, I’ve taken all that I can take, it’s true,
I’m saying too much, too many times and now I’m sick of it,
Bad taste up in my mouth, Black Licorice,
Too many times and now I’m sick of it,
Bad taste up in my mouth, Black Licorice.

You said some things that I can never forget,
Never accept, so you’re someone I could never respect, ever,
I used to call ya God’s Litter, just a piece of trash,
Moved out, peace at last; guess you’re just a piece of ass,
I can see you now, eyes swollen, when you sleep at last,
Well, if you could see me now, bet you’d probably see me laugh,
This is just my way of saying everything that was not said,
Basically, I hope you drop dead,
I hope you wallow in your misery, pill after pill,
Hope they take away your kids, then your heart goes still,
Yeah, hate is such a strong word, but it isn’t strong enough,
No matter how long it’s been, it hasn’t been long enough,
Uh, it hasn’t been long enough,
Uh it’s hasn’t been long enough,
Uh, it hasn’t been long enough,
Uh it’s hasn’t been long enough,
