Here we go again in the same storyWe follow the routine until we say "I'm sorry"Hands are shaking till I just look down at the floorFace is turning red and eyes are going puffyYou ask me why we yell and I come up with nothingYour insecurities are pulling you backBut please know, oh, oh
I love you, but I don't like youThe simple truth is I can't do this, though I try toI love you, but I don't like youAnd I can't shut you out, so I'm shutting my mouthBut I'll never despise youI just don't like youOh, oh, oh, ohOh, ohOh oh oh oh oh oh oh
We pour our souls out about the past monthsBy just trying to talk about lunchAnd every single thing you say is gonna start a new warAnd I'm exhausted from this tug of war of wordsAnd when you said "I don't care for you" it got worseWe both know it isn't working but I still put you first
'Cause I love you, but I don't like youThe simple truth is I can't do this, though I try toI love you, but I don't like youAnd I can't shut you out, so I'm shutting my mouthBut I'll never despise youI just don't like you
OohWe both refuse to loseWe both refuse to choose the higher roadWhich way we go, oh oh, oh ohAnd ooh (ooh)We both refuse to lose (lose)We both refuse to choose the higher roadWhich will we go, oh oh, oh oh
'Cause I love you, but I don't like youThe simple truth is I can't do this, though I try toI love you, but I don't like youAnd I can't shut you out, so I'm shutting my mouthBut I'll never despise youI just don't like youOh, oh, oh, ohOh, ohOh oh oh oh oh oh oh(And ooh)Oh, oh, oh, oh(We both refuse to lose)(We both refuse to choose the higher road)Oh, oh(Which will we go)Oh oh oh oh oh oh ohI just don't like you
