hate somebody (feat. Skout)

You make a joke about a starving artist but a
blank page and dusty guitar, it mocks me
I haven't had a good word to say for over a year now
It seems like I always fall in love
And lose myself in the process
I have to confess
Cause I think I know what I gotta do

I can only write when I hate somebody I can't have somebody be you
I can only feel when I'm brokenhearted
Run, run, now so you
Don't become shrapnel in my lungs
Can't you see damage being done
I can only write when I hate somebody I can't have somebody be you

You look away when I ask you softly
Am I just a burden, do you still want me?
Hoping it was all in my head for over a year now
It seems like I always fall in love
And lose myself in the process
I have to confess
Cause I think I know what I gotta do

I can only stay when I trust somebody I don't think somebody is you
I can only fight if you're fighting for me
Run, run, so you
Don't have to hide it anymore
I'm not gonna be somebody's chore
I can only stay when I trust somebody I don't think somebody, don't think somebody is you

I'm sorry I'm like this I tried so hard to fight it
But now I just don't know what to say
I wanted you so badly
But now I'm just the bad thing that you don't even want to stay
Well, I know that you still care
And I know it's still you there

All I need's a sign and I'll stay (I want you to stay)
Give me a reason to stay (I want you to stay)
I want you to stay
You know I wish I could stay
I can only write when I hate somebody I can't have somebody be you

And I can only fight if you're fighting for me Run, run, don't so you
Don't become shrapnel in my lungs
Can't you see damage being done (damage being done)
I can only write when I hate somebody I can't have somebody, can't have somebody be you
Can't have somebody, can't have somebody be you

Can't have somebody, can't have somebody be you
