[Verse 1]
God I hate myself, I make me sick
Why the hell would anyone want part of this?
Who would ever jump on board a sinking ship
With their sword drawn high?
And now you're taking up a fight that's not your own
I wish that you would stop, just let me go
But you carry on like i'm invincible
With your sword drawn high

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not the hero that you hoped
I'm just a man who plays the role
So if you love me save yourself
'Cause there's no saving me from hell

[Chorus]
Why can't you hate me?
Just tell me I'm not worth the love you give
How can you trust me?
When all I make is broken promises
Why don't you leavе me?
I'll only hurt us both again and again
Why can't you hate me?
'Causе God I hate myself
[Verse 2]
God I hate myself for all I did
Oh how I'd give anything to just forget
Still you love me for me
And you forgive all the wrong I've done
And surely I deserve the worst you have
But you tell me to march on and never look back
How could anyone see me and not my past
With the wrong I've done?

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm not the hero that you hoped
I'm just a man who plays the role
So if you love me save yourself
'Cause there's no saving me from hell

[Chorus]
Why can't you hate me?
Just tell me I'm not worth the love you give
How can you trust me?
When all I make is broken promises
Why don't you leave me?
I'll only hurt us both again and again
Why can't you hate me?
'Cause God I hate myself
[Outro]
Why don't you leave me?
I'll only break your heart again and again
Why can't you hate me
Like I hate myself
