“hate to be lame” is the eleventh track off Lizzy McAlpine’s sophomore album, five seconds flat, in which she calls on the artist FINNEAS to help contextualize the insecurities and fears during a love relationship.
Love songs are very common but “hate to be lame” not only captures what it feels lik...
[Verse 1: Lizzy McAlpine]
It's always on the tip of my tongue
I read an article on the internet
Told me that that's how you know you're fallin' in love
Don't really trust what's on the internet
But maybe just this once
[Chorus: Lizzy McAlpine]
Hate to admit but it might be true
Hate to admit but I think you knew
Hate to be lame but I might love you
[Verse 2: Lizzy McAlpine & FINNEAS, Lizzy McAlpine]
It's always on the tip of my tongue
But I stop myself from sayin' it
Tell myself it's not the right time or something dumb
But then you kiss me like you do
And we're right back where we started from
[Chorus: Lizzy McAlpine & FINNEAS]
Hatе to admit but it might be true
Hate to admit but I think you knеw
Hate to be lame but I might love you
[Bridge: Lizzy McAlpine]
Do I love him? Do I need him?
Do I want him? Do I care enough to say
That I love him, that I need him?
'Cause I don't but I want to feel okay
If I love him, if I need him
Maybe that will make him stay
If I lie, will I still feel this way?
[Verse 3: FINNEAS]
It's always in the back of my mind
Maybe my mistakes are the reason
That I made it back to you in time
If I could rewind, would there be some butterfly effect?
What if we never met? What if the stars never aligned?
[Chorus: Lizzy McAlpine & FINNEAS]
Hate to admit but it might be true
Hate to admit but I think you knew
Hate to be lame but I might love you
[Outro: Philip Etherington]
