[Verse 1]
Told we could be who we wanted
Or get what we needed, hey yeah
One and the other competing
Over the meaning, hey yeah
[Chorus]
Back when I said that I want it all
This wasn't the point at all
Hostile to that superficial view
Show me something that can't be bought
It's harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
When you don't know if you should fall
If there'd be a net at all
Pleasure gets so easily abused
Show me something that can't bе bought
It's harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choosе
[Post-Chorus]
Hate
Love
Hate
Love
[Verse 2]
And when you don't want to chase it
But can't stand to waste it, hey yeah
It's either rags into riches
Or life in the trenches, hey yeah
[Chorus]
Back when I said that I want it all
This wasn't the point at all
Hostile to that superficial view
Show me something that can't be bought
It's harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
When you don't know if you should fall
If there'd be a net at all
Pleasure gets so easily abused
Show me something that can't be bought
It's harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
[Post-Chorus]
Hate, love (Hate, love)
Hate, love (Hate, love)
Hate, love
Hate, love
Hate, love
Hate, love
Hate
Love
Hate
Love
Hate
Love
Hate
Love

What did Metric say about "False Dichotomy"?
James Shaw:
Emily became obsessed for a minute with the idea of a false dichotomy and how there’s so many things in the world where you’re told that you can only do one or the other, and that they’re mutually exclusive—like success and integrity. This is like an extension of “I Will Never Settle”....
