The Differences Between Love and Hate

Lyrics

Verse 1
Male Voice
I love that woman more than life, and that’s why I want to die
She might show up to my funeral, but I doubt you’ll see her cry
I’m just a habit she can’t shake, a ghost in her hallway
But I’d rather be her haunting than be a mile away
​[Verse 2]
Female Voice
He means more to me than any man... well, any man in town
And if you want a laugh at his expense, he’s a king without a crown
He makes me proud just often enough to keep me from the door
Then he goes and acts the fool 'til I can’t take it anymore
​[Chorus] [Both]
​We drive each other up the wall nearly every day and night
There’s nothing that we’d rather do than settle in and fight
We spend our whole lives running, trying to find a brand-new start
But we always feel the tether pulling on our aching hearts
Yeah, there’s a razor-thin line, and we’re walking it straight
Between the bitter differences of love and hate

​Verse 3
Male Voice
If I could’ve had any woman, why’d I have to choose her?
There’s a fire in the way she loves that makes a man want to burn
Female Voice
And if I had any sense at all, I’d leave him in the dust
But I’m addicted to the damage and I’m blinded by the rust
​Bridge
Male Voice
​I hate the way you talk...
Female Voice
I hate the way you stay...
Male Voice
But I’d lose my mind...
(Both)
If you ever walked away.
