Here we go again in the same story We follow the routine until we say "I'm sorry" Hands are shaking till I just look down at the floor Face is turning red and eyes are growing puffy You ask me why we yell and I come up with nothing Your insecurities are pulling you 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 shut you out, so I'm shutting my mouth But I'll never despise you I just don't like you ♪ We pour our souls out about the past months But 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 shut you out, 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 will we go? And oh We both refuse to lose We both refuse to choose the higher road Which way will we go? '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 shut you out, so I'm shutting my mouth But I'll never despise you I just don't like you ♪ And oh We both refuse to lose We both refuse to choose the higher road Which way will we go? I just don't like you
