I Would Hate You If I Could

I hear you've been telling all your friends that you're done with me
 Like you always knew things wouldn't work out
 And I've been hearing things from people that I don't want to talk to
 Like it matters who you're sleeping with now
 Can I erase from my mind anything that you said
 Or any time that we spent with each other?
 I don't want to waste away another cell on a memory
 When you're just another meaningless lover
 Forget the nights that we spent laughing
 'Til the morning on your bedroom floor
 Without a thought about your roommate asleep down the hall
 Forget the days we'd waste in bed
 Tangled, the smoke still on your breath
 Undressed and pinning you up to the wall
 And I swore I heard you talking
 When I was tossing in my sleep
 You were always trying to walk in circles around me
 I was out one night when I saw you
 And you froze me where I stood
 I would hate you, I would hate you if I could
 Forget the nights that we spent laughing
 'Til the morning on your bedroom floor
 Without a thought about your roommate asleep down the hall
 Forget the days we'd waste in bed
 Tangled, the smoke still on your breath
 Undressed and pinning you up to the wall

 I would hate you but I'm not finished yet
 Even you up on that pedestal (I would hate you but I'm not finished yet)
 The time will come when you (I would hate you)
 Will deconstruct yourself and remake what you are (but I'm not finished yet)
 And when it does, you'll remember me (I would hate you but I'm not finished yet)
 And the words I spoke (I would hate you)
 And wonder how you ever could have strayed so far (but I'm not finished yet)
