Polly Scattergood I Hate The Way
I hate the way I cry when you say you miss me
but I love the way you hold me when I sleep
I hate the way I bleed each time you kiss me
But you say hey, sleeping beauty, go back to sleep
We had pennies in our pockets,
we had hope in our eyes,
you said, girl, you got a million different faces,
so why d’you put on that disguise
well take what you want cause I’ve got nothing,
pass me some pills, I’ll go to bed,
but however much I toss and turn I feel a dark place up
ahead
Some nights I just sit right here, I remember, I just
remember
before it all got lost up in the mess
he said, “Not all men are bad, and I am not like your
dad,
and I will hold you, even though you’re slightly mad,
cause I am not a man who will ever break you.”
We had pennies in our pockets,
we had hope in our eyes
you said, girl you’ve got a million different faces,
so why d’you put on that disguise
well you can take what you want cause I have got
nothing,
pass me some pills and I’ll go to bed,
but however much I toss and turn I feel a dark place up
ahead
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
my doctor said I gotta sing a happy tune
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo, do doo dn doo
but my body gave up too soon
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
you know what
I am just fine ‘til I’m on my own
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo, ah doo dn doo dn doo
somebody please come home
I hate the way I tremble when you touch me
you’re like a needle slowly piercing my skin
I hate the way my stomach aches
and I really hate these loveless mistakes
cause I’m screaming for my rock who never picks up,
why do you never pick up
We had pennies in our pockets
we had hope in our eyes
you said, girl you’ve got a million different faces,
so why d’you put on that disguise
well you can take what you want cause I’ve got nothing,
pass me some pills, and I will go to bed,
but, however much I toss and turn I feel a dark place
up ahead
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
my doctor said I’ve got to sing a happy tune
