“hate u love u” is a melancholy tale of a lost relationship. Olivia O'Brien sings about an ex who she’s still in love with who has moved on to a new girl.
The first verse, hook, bridge, and chord progression were famously used in Gnash’s version of this song, “i hate u, i love u.” For that song, O'...
[Verse 1]
Feeling used, but I'm still missing you
And I can't see the end of this
Just wanna feel your kiss against my lips
And now all this time is passing by
But I still can't seem to tell you why
It hurts me every time I see you
Realize how much I need you
[Chorus]
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I love you
Don't want to, but I can't put
Nobody else above you
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I want you
You want her, you need her
And I'll never be her
[Verse 2]
What about all the times
You would pick me up and we'd just drive
Around until we found a place to stay and waste the day away
We'd do nothing but it was okay with me
You say it's not good to spend all my time
Thinking about you so late at night
But I can't stop once I start it's like an avalanche
Thoughts coming and I just wanna hold your hand
Hold your breath, I'm going under
Not coming up 'til this night is over
'Til this night is over
[Chorus]
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I love you
Don't want to, but I can't put
Nobody else above you
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I want you
You want her, you need her
And I'll never be her
[Bridge]
All alone, I watch you watch her
Like she's the only girl you've ever seen
You don't care, you never did
You don't give a damn about me
Yeah, all alone, I watch you watch her
She is the only thing you've ever seen
How is it you never notice
That you were slowly killing me
[Chorus]
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I love you
Don't want to, but I can't put
Nobody else above you
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I want you
You want her, you need her
And I'll never be her
hate u love u was written by gnash & Olivia O’Brien.
hate u love u was produced by Jon Sprott & Marty Rod & Sam Watters.
Olivia O’Brien released hate u love u on Fri Dec 09 2016.
Gnash re-recorded this song with O'Brien shortly after its release to make “i hate u, i love u.” This is essentially the demo version of that song, although it does have an extra verse from O'Brien. Later, she rereleased her demo, which had better mastering.
I wrote it almost two years ago in my room, and I didn’t think anyone would ever hear it. I was so nervous to ever post anything. It was one of those things where I was like, “Nobody is ever going to hear this.” It was just me trying to put my emotions somewhere, ‘cause I was really sad about a boy...
Yeah, he knows. Everyone at my school totally knows about him, ‘cause we were hanging out. Everyone knew, and the girl that he was dating would listen to it and send me videos of them listening to it. It was some weird shit. That was his claim to fame. For senior superlatives, he won “Most likely t...
I was really excited, because I did a cover of one of his songs. He asked me if I had original stuff, and he asked me to come work with him in LA when he heard “i hate u, i love u.” It was a really cool experience. I didn’t even know he was going to put a verse on it. I was like, “This is so cool an...
