Neon Trees - I Love You (But I Hate Your Friends) Lyrics

I drew my name in lipstick on a mirror at your sister's house
She told me I was strange, I told her, "Thanks," and kissed her on the mouth
But you don't go that way
I thought you had a thing for fancy boys
Looks can be deceiving

I love you
But I hate your friends
They're all desperate
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
All this emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?

They never liked the music
They bitch about how cool it 'used to be'
Somehow I can't refuse it
I dig your blatant sexuality
Oh you say I'm not that easy
I'm not sure what the hell you take me for
Honey, Looks can be deceiving

I love you
But I hate your friends
They're all desperate
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
All this emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?

They're always on to the next big thing
They wanna bite but they can barely sting
I never wanted you for just a fling
I hate it when you lie to me
But I just let you lie to me

I love you
But I hate your friends
They're all desperate
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
All this emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?

I love you [3x]
But I hate your friends

I love you [3x]
But I hate your friends
