"I Love/Hate You"

baby when i put my hands on you
i feel like i'm touching the earth
i'm breaking ground and the soil is wet,
slipping through my hands

baby when i put my eyes on you
i follow the curves of the moon
the oceans rise and come crashing down
onto the shore

but your love is a noose around my neck
i give up and i know i will regret it
your love is a weight around my legs
but i don't know who i am unless you're holding me

baby when i listen to your words
they whisper to me like the wind
but they're strong enough to blow me down
and destroy my house

but your love is a noose around my neck
i give up and i know i will regret it
your love is a weight around my legs
but i don't know who i am unless you're holding me

baby when listen to your words
baby when i put my eyes on you
baby when i put my hands on you
i love/hate you
