lyrics

How about we just take a break
Maybe this was all just a big mistake
I'll say that's okay
The smile I force is so fake
Gotta hurry on out of there so you can’t see me cry
How could you have possibly known
that you just broke my heart for the very first time?
And maybe one day, I’ll get over you
And I won’t hate you like I do
But until then, until then
I can pretend that we are friends
But until then, until then
Oh until then I can pretend
I don’t hate you

Is this really goodbye
Looking back
I should have seen the signs
all that we had
thrown into the trash
discarded like ¬¬burned out match
There was trouble in paradise
And maybe one day, I’ll get over you
And I won’t hate you like I do
But until then, until then
I can pretend that we are friends
But until then, until then
Oh until then I can pretend
I don’t hate you

Do I love you or what you do? Do I love you I don’t know (3x)
Do I love you? Do I? Do I? Oh

Until then, until then
I understand you don’t need a friend
But until then, until then
Oh until I understand
If you hate me
I won't hate anymore
Over a confused heart
I've been on the other side now
And I get how these things start
I used to hate him so much
For leading me on
But then I stumbled into this
And realized I’m not so strong

What are we now? Where is your heart?
Do you think of me when we're apart?
Why am I so dumb?
How was I so blind?
How could I string you on the whole time?
Why did it end? When did you know?
Why did you wait so long to let me go?
Why’d it take so long for me to figure out?
And now I’ve hurt someone I really care about.

Until then, until then
I understand you don’t need a friend
But until then, until then
Oh until I understand
If you my guts
You can hate my guts
You can curse my name
Throw our memories down the drain
You can hate me that’s okay
