We drove boulevards in your beat-up car with our hands out the sunroof And for a moment I swore we were bulletproof Now you're screaming at me like you never loved me in the first place Put me at my lowest, oh, baby, what a fucking shame I don't think that I'm asking the whole damn world of you But I'm telling you If you can't love me like I need, what am I to do Than to find another, another reason to hate you? It's self-protection, you give me no option than to Find another, another reason to hate you You never knew when to stop, no, you couldn't even drive yourself home I was the bad cop, you never did anything wrong I know you were lashing out 'cause you'd love to hear your name in a song Well, go take a bow now, 'cause you got 'em all singing along I don't think that I'm asking the whole damn world of you But I'm telling you If you can't love me like I need, what am I to do Than to find another, another reason to hate you? It's self-protection, you give me no option than to Find another, another reason to hate you
