You Are Who You Love

I used to need
Everyone to love me
And say you're so great
And you make me laugh
And your voice is money

Well, I still do
But I'm working on it
'Cause I paid your price
Got a little too high
And fake love and worth it

We don't get much time here
And I don't want to waste mine
On somebody who makes me feel small
To feed a sense of pride

You only drag me down
So I'm climbing my way out
Of this hole that you dug
'Cause you are who you love
And I hate to cut you out
Like a bad habit but I'm out
Of excuses for your attitude
It sucks, but
You are who you love

I used to think
You really loved me
Always needing more
Always keeping score
Making me feel guilty

I know you'll say
It's all in my head
I'll beat myself up
Call my own bluff
No, not again

Mama always told me
Try to see the best
In everyone you meet
But, my God
Mama doesn't know your ass

You only drag me down
So I'm climbing my way out
Of this hole that you dug
'Cause you are who you love
And I hate to cut you out
Like a bad habit but I'm out
Of excuses for your attitude
It sucks, but
You are who you love

And I know it hurts
It hurts me too
But you are who you love
And I don't want to be like you
And I know it hurts
I know it sounds cruel
But you are who you love
And I don't want to be like you

No, I don't want to be like you

'Cause you only drag me down
So I'm climbing my way out
Of this hole that you dug
'Cause you are who you love
And I hate to cut you out
Like a bad habit but I'm out
Of excuses for your attitude
It sucks, but
You are who you love

And I know it hurts
It hurts me too
But you are who you love
And I don't want to be like you
And I know it hurts
I know it sounds cruel
But you are who you love
And I don't want to be like you
