Neon Trees
I Love You (But I Hate Your Friends)
[Verse 1]
I drew my name in lipstick
On a mirror at your sister's house
She told me I was strange, I told her, "Thanks"
And kissed her on the mouth
But you don’t go that way
I thought you had a thing for fancy boys
Looks can be deceiving
[Hook]
I love you
But I hate your friends
They're all desperate
If you knew what I know
Would you be ready to go?
All this emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know
Would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?
[Verse 2]
They never liked the music
They bitch about how cool it "used to be"
Somehow I can’t refuse it
I dig your blatant sexuality
Oh you say I’m not that easy
I’m not sure what the hell you take me for
Honey, Looks can be deceiving
[Hook]
I love you
But I hate your friends
They're all desperate
If you knew what I know
Would you be ready to go?
All this emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know
Would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?
[Bridge]
They’re always on to the next big thing
They wanna bite but they can barely sting
I never wanted you for just a fling
I hate it when you lie to me
But I just let you lie to me
[Hook]
I love you
But I hate your friends
They're all desperate
If you knew what I know
Would you be ready to go?
All this emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know
Would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?
I love you, I love you, I love you
But I hate your friends
I love you, I love you, I love you
But I hate your friends
