[Verse 1]
You hold me closer, tighter than before
Each touch is heavy, I'm drifting off the shore
Your eyes, they tell me, locked in a desperate plea
But love, can't you see, it's drowning me
[Pre-Chorus]
A whisper in the night, your voice, a lullaby
But I can't breathe, no matter how I try
[Chorus]
I hate that you love me, with all your might
Your heart's a beacon, but it's too bright
I hate that you love me, and I can't escape
These chains of affection, I can't break
[Verse 2]
You bake me memories, sweet, then sour
Moments ticking by, like a countdown hour
In every kiss, a promise you'd never lie
Yet here I am, wishing for goodbye
[Pre-Chorus]
A whisper in the night, your voice, a lullaby
But I can't breathe, no matter how I try
[Chorus]
I hate that you love me, with all your might
Your heart's a beacon, but it's too bright
I hate that you love me, and I can't escape
These chains of affection, I can't break
[Bridge]
The sky's painted gray, like our endless fight
Bound by love's curse, yet out of sight
You deserve someone who can hold your gaze
But I'm lost in this melancholic maze
[Chorus]
I hate that you love me, with all your might
Your heart's a beacon, but it's too bright
I hate that you love me, and I can't escape
These chains of affection, I can't break
[Outro]
I hate that you love me, I hate that it's true
But in this tangled heart, I'll always cherish you

I hate that you love me
