What It Feels Like, To Be Left By You
Let me tell you something here about me
 About where I am, and where I'll never be
 I'll tell you what you don't know
 'Cause what you don't know is everything
 I hate you,
 And I hate everything you're about
 I hate everything you do and everything you love
 And if you pretend to love me
 Well, then I hate that too
 I hate how cut-throat you are,
 And how efficient you seem
 I hate your white caps and lectures on dark things
 I hate the way you treat every scared maid who comes into your house, 
 And I hate the way you chase them off with your superstitious
 I hate how I can't make you love me, and I really hate how sad that makes me
 And the rest of you!
 I hate how you always freeze me out and exclude me
 I hate your stupid pink dresses that I can't fit into
 I hate how cold you are, how mean
 Strict, cruel in your subtle little ways
 I hate your accents,
 Your flags hung up on the wall
 Your clothes, your views
 Everything that makes it so obvious where you're from
 And I hate how proud you are of that
 I hate the way everyone seems so much more important
 Than me, with you
 And how you make me feel like I could be so much better
 But I'm not
 And I never will be
 I hate how you make me cry at night
 How you make the days seem empty and the nights seem hollow
 How your very presence drains the life out of like a parasite
 I hate how easy it is for you to get into my head
 And how much I stupidly care, still care,
 What you think of me
 I hate the way you tie your shoes
 I hate how you got that book before I did
 I hate your sense of humor, how narrow-minded you are
 How you laugh and taunt, 
 the way you make it seem like I'm a lost cause,
 a mental case
 But most of all, I hate how much you love each other and don't love me.
