Here we go again, in the same story Follow the routine until we say I'm sorry Hands are shaking till I just look down at the floor Faces turning red and eyes are going puffy You ask me why we're yelling, I come up with nothing Your insecurities are all on your back, but please know I love you, but I don't like you The simple truth is I can't do this, though I try to I love you, but I don't like you And I can't show you why, so I'm shutting my mouth But I'll never despise you, I just don't like you Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh We pour our souls out about the past months By just trying to talk about lunch And every single thing we say is gonna start a new war And I'm exhausted from this tug-of-war of words And when you said I don't care for you, it got worse We both know it isn't working, but I still put you first Cause I love you, but I don't like you The simple truth is I can't do this, though I try to I love you, but I don't like you And I can't show you why, so I'm shutting my mouth But I'll never despise you, I just don't like you We both refuse to lose We both refuse to choose the higher road Which way we go, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh And oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh We both refuse to lose We both refuse to choose the higher road Which way we go, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Cause I love you, but I don't like you The simple truth is I can't do this, though I try to I love you, but I don't like you And I can't show you why, so I'm shutting my mouth But I'll never despise you, I just don't like you Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh We both refuse to lose We both refuse to choose the higher road Which way we go, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh I just don't like you
