I didn't want you to smile at me,

I wanted you to hate me

So when you laugh at me,

I don't feel sad and alone again.

I didn't want you to care for me,

I wanted you to hate me

So when we fight,

Your words can't hurt me again.

I didn't want you to comfort me,

I wanted you to hate me

So when I need a shoulder to cry on,

I'm not upset when you pass by again.

I didn't want you to be there for me,

I wanted you to hate me

So when I feel lonely,

I don't expect anything from you again.

I didn't want you to love me,

I wanted you to hate me

Because now you're leaving,

And it hurts too much.
