You say I'm a different breed, but I don't know what you mean
Don't try to wake me up while I'm having a dream
I wanna be alone, can you please run on home
And can you shut your mouth for me, 'cause every word is overblown
Can you please help me stand, 'cause if you don't I'll probably fall
And I'm not good to you with my face against a wall
And if you wanna know what I've been thinking of
Well, you'll be greatly disappointed, 'cause it sure as hell ain't love
Can't you see that I'm the one you need to hate
Can't you see that all you do is hesitate
To hate my guts, feel my pain, and know that destiny is not the same
As it was before, as it is no more
As you fall to the floor when you push me out the door
A lost boy of a kid, completely off the grid
Falling over just for exercise and living on the skids
I'm headed for the hills, try to catch me if you will
'Cause I'm addicted to the chase, and I'm searching for a thrill
Babe I hate what I have, and I want what's not mine
And I've broken many things, but breaking hearts is not my crime
I'm a derailed train, that's my blood on the tracks
I'll smile while I limp away, and never look back
Can't you see that I'm the one you need to hate
Can't you see that all you do is hesitate
To hate my guts, feel my pain, and know that destiny is not the same
As it was before, as it is no more
As you fall to the floor when you push me out the door
Can't you see that I'm the one you need to hate
Can't you see that all you do is hesitate
To hate my guts, feel my pain, and know that destiny is not the same
As it was before, as it is no more
As you fall to the floor when you push me out the door
