I AM What I Hate

This is the best damn chapter in my life story
And you're not in it
No, you're not in it

It's a perfect kiss at a gorgeous sunset
And it's not with your lips
It's not with your lips

Because these are the pages where the reader's taken
By a stronger love interest than you'll ever be

Because a love like yours is merely methodone
To tide me over until the real shit comes along

Because you're the ghost writer
Of the worst damn chapter in my whole life
I need an editor
To erase you and embrace the highlights
Because you sentenced this captain to walk the plank
And we're going down, going down, going down

This is the best damn scar on all of my flesh
And you carved it for me
You carved it for me

It's the harshest word in my arsenal
But I'm plagiarizing
I'm plagiarizing

Because I'm the golden boy of this cursed cityscape
Your broken transmission
The poison icing on your wedding cake

Because a love like yours
Is like an STD
It only flares up
If there's no medicine in me

And you're the ghostwriter
Of the worst damn chapter in my whole life
I need an editor
To erase you and embrace the highlights
Because there's blood and ocean on your hands
And we're going down, going down, going down, going down
Going down

This is the best damn chapter of my life story
Because you're not in it
