[Verse 1]
GI have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
They cEmrawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping Clittle reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
Playing Ammovies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a Gburning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of Empeace is all I want for you; will you never call again?
And will you Cnever say that you love me just to put it in my face?
And will you Amnever try to reach me; It is I that wanted space
[Chorus]
Hate me toGday
Hate me toEmmorrow
Hate me for aCll the things I dDidn't do for yEmou
Hate me in wGays
Yeah ways harEmd to swallow
Hate me so Cyou can finally sDee what's good for Gyou
[Verse 2]
I’m sGober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one Emthing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again
In my Csick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
While I was bAmusy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
You never dGoubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate
You made me Emcompliment myself when it was way too hard to take
So I’ll Cdrive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind
And Amdo whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind
[Chorus]
Hate me toGday
Hate me toEmmorrow
Hate me for aCll the things I dDidn't do for yEmou
Hate me in wGays
Yeah ways haEmrd to swallow
Hate me so Cyou can finally sDee what's good for Gyou
[Bridge]
And with a Am7sad heart I say bye to you and wDave
Kicking Gshadows on the street for every miEmstake that I had made
And like a Am7baby boy I never was a mDan
Until I Gsaw your blue eyes cry and I held youEmr face in my hand
And then I fAm7ell down yelling ‘Make it go awDay!’
Just make a sGmile, come back and shine, like it Emused to be
And then she Am7whispered ‘How can you do this to mDe?’
[Chorus]
Hate me toGday
Hate me toEmmorrow
Hate me for aCll the things I Ddidn't do for Emyou
Hate me in wGays
Yeah ways hard to Emswallow
Hate me so Cyou can finally Dsee what's good for yGou
For Emyou
For CyouD  
For Gyou

Am7

[Verse 1]

I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head

They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed

Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone

Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home

There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain

An ounce of peace is all I want for you; will you never call again?

And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?

And will you never try to reach me; It is I that wanted space

[Chorus]

Hate me today

Hate me tomorrow

C D Em

Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Hate me in ways

Yeah ways hard to swallow

C D G

Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you

[Verse 2]

I’m sober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with

The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again

In my sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night

While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight

You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate

You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take

So I’ll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind

And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind

[Chorus]

Hate me today

Hate me tomorrow

C D Em

Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Hate me in ways

Yeah ways hard to swallow

C D G

Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you

[Bridge]

Am7 D

And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave

G Em

Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made

Am7 D

And like a baby boy I never was a man

G Em

Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand

Am7 D

And then I fell down yelling ‘Make it go away!’

G Em

Just make a smile, come back and shine, like it used to be

Am7 D

And then she whispered ‘How can you do this to me?’

[Chorus]

Hate me today

Hate me tomorrow

C D Em

Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Hate me in ways

Yeah ways hard to swallow

C D G

Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you

For you

C D

For you
