lyrics

I wish I loved you cuz I really like you but I somehow doubt I'll care about you in a month or two
And if that seems callous
or like a fuckin cop out I can't say
but i'm an asshole and incapable of love

Wish I could need you cuz I really want you but it's not fair of me to say some words I know I'll never mean
And that might be callous
Yeah it might just be a cop out but it also has the distinction
of being completely true
oh you

Leave me
That's the only way I'll love you
That's the reason I'll think of you, if you stay
It shows poor taste

Fuck me
And then promptly fuck me over
It shouldn't take you long to pour yourself into
Somebody new
Somebody more like you

Still wish I loved you cuz I still really like you but I think you're waiting round here for this to be something more
And darlin
God I wish it could be but you're
Right where you should be just as long as you're still walking out that
Always open door

Leave me
That's the only way I'll love you
That's the reason I'll think of you, if you stay
It shows poor taste

Fuck me
And then promptly fuck me over
It shouldn't take you long to pour yourself into
Somebody new
Somebody more like you
