It's just a matter of time

Before you recognize me for who I am

It's just a matter of time

Before you see the man behind the mask

If you give me your heart I won't keep it

It will only end up in pieces

If you say too long

Than a lot will go wrong

And you can't go back



So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and get as far away as you can

Go ahead and hate me

Than I can't find a way to hurt you so bad

I'll let you walk away

I'll only hurt you when you stay

So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and hate me



You told me I can be good

You know I wish I could

But some things can't change

I finally realized

I'm the kind of guy that can't be tamed

I find myself in all the wrong places

Wake up it's time that we face this

I told you I could be good

So keeping my word by pushing you away



So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and get as far away as you can

Go ahead and hate me

Than I can't find a way to hurt you so bad

I'll let you walk away

I'll only hurt you when you stay

So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and hate me



I love you enough to let you

Love you enough to let you

Love you enough to let you

Love you enough to let you go



I love you enough to let you

Love you enough to let you

Love you enough to let you

Love you enough to let you go

So go ahead and hate me



Go ahead and get as far away as you can

Go ahead and hate me

Than I can't find a way to hurt you so bad



So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and get as far away as you can

Go ahead and hate me

Than I can't find a way to hurt you so bad

I'll let you walk away

I'll only hurt you when you stay

So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and hate me



So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and get as far away as you can

Go ahead and hate me

Than I can't find a way to hurt you so bad

I'll let you walk away

I'll only hurt you when you stay

So go ahead and hate me

Go ahead and hate me
