hate me

Lyrics

Intro
Heaven-sent
Then you flip
I flinch
One touch bless
Next touch trench (yeah)

Verse 1
Heaven sent one moment
Nightmare next
I stare at your halo
Then feel hands on my neck
Don’t know if God sent you
Or hell pressed send
Every time I say “this the last time”
You hit “again”

Tear drops falling
On the cracked screen glow
Your name popping up
Like you own my soul
Heart aching
Lungs shaking
Can’t catch breath
I’m addicted to hurt
You my favorite wreck

Chorus
Hate me
Say it like you mean that thing
Break me
Drag my name through everything
Love me
Then you rip my chest in three
I don’t know if you’re a blessing
Or you came to bury me

Hate me
You the blade and I’m the skin
Save me
Then you throw me back in sin
Love me
Till I’m crawling on my knees
I don’t know if you’re from heaven
Or you here to watch me bleed (yeah)

Verse 2
You call
I come
Like a fool on cue
Bloodshot eyes
But I still choose you
Dumbfounded
Drowning
In the mess we made
You apologize soft
Then you twist the blade

I keep praying
“God
Tell me what this is”
Is it karma
Is it poison
Is it love
Is it prison?
I’m a broken man talking
To a bedroom wall
Every “sorry” that you whisper
Is another fall

Chorus
Hate me
Say it like you mean that thing
Break me
Drag my name through everything
Love me
Then you rip my chest in three
I don’t know if you’re a blessing
Or you came to bury me

Hate me
You the blade and I’m the skin
Save me
Then you throw me back in sin
Love me
Till I’m crawling on my knees
I don’t know if you’re from heaven
Or you here to watch me bleed

Bridge
I’m crying to me (crying to me)
I’m lying to me (lying to me)
You’re fire to me
But you’re ice in my teeth

If pain is a prayer
Then I’m on my face
If love is a drug
You laced it with hate (yeah)

Chorus
Hate me
Say it like you mean that thing
Break me
Drag my name through everything
Love me
Then you rip my chest in three
I don’t know if you’re a blessing
Or you came to bury me

Hate me
You the blade and I’m the skin
Save me
Then you throw me back in sin
Love me
Till I’m begging
“set me free”
I don’t know if you’re from heaven
Or you came to finish me (hate me)

outro
Heaven sent, then a nightmare's grip,
A halo's glow, then a finger's slip.
I’m reaching for air while I’m down on my knees,
Drowning in "sorry" and "darling, please."
Hate me now, just to feel the spark,
Drag my name through the deepest dark.
Break me down till I’m just the skin,
Then throw me back into the original sin.
If love is a drug, then the dose is hate,
A broken man at a golden gate.
I don’t know if you’re a blessing sent to stay,
Or just here to watch me bleed away.
