Hate You Instead

[Intro]
I'm dying lately

[Chorus]
And it's all in my head, words I know I should've said
I'd rather hate you instead, I keep your letters in the bed
I'd rather leave 'em unread, don't make me think what could've been
No, I said never again, now I spin and I spin around, I'm wastin' my time
So many questions, I'll just keep 'em in the back of my mind
It's just a lesson that I learned, I had to set you aside
Another memory to burn, I set the flame out of spite
Then I spin and I spin around

[Verse 1]
And now I try to make it through life one day at a time, the scars are healin' from the knife
Just a thorn in my side, it's nothin' I won't come back from
It's only a scratch, maybe this is the last one that I'll ever have
But the rain falls down, just a little bit colder and the pain fades out
Like the burden from my shoulders, I made it through the weather
Never better, I pull myself together, even though you were swept
By the tide, I had to call off the search, I had to swallow the hurt
No there's nothin' to see, because unfortunately
You're nothin' more than a ghost, someone I don't even know

[Chorus]
And it's all in my head, words I know I should've said
I'd rather hate you instead, I keep your letters in the bed
I'd rather leave 'em unread, don't make me think what could've been
No, I said never again, now I spin and I spin around, I'm wastin' my time
So many questions, I'll just keep 'em in the back of my mind
It's just the lesson that I learned, I had to set you aside
Another memory to burn, I set the flame out of spite
Then I spin and I spin around, it's all in my head

[Verse 2]
I hope everything reminds you of me
I hope you feel me everytime when you're sleepin' alone
And you reach for the phone, and it makes you wonder
If you're all in my head, if you're all in my head

[Chorus]
And it's all in my head, words I know I should've said
I'd rather hate you instead, I keep your letters in the bed
I'd rather leave 'em unread, don't make me think what could've been
No, I said never again, now I spin and I spin around, I'm wastin' my time
So many questions, I'll just keep 'em in the back of my mind
It's just the lesson that I learned, I had to set you aside
Another memory to burn, I set the flame out of spite
Then I spin and I spin around, it's all in my head
