Lyrics by Kate Bernardoni

You know who I hate most? Are those who made me love them the best
I posted and called a human I chose above all the rest
Above my blood and my family
A hidden and newly discovered branch on our tree, We all agreed
But now you don’t answer me
It’s like losing an arm that you chose to grow
Killing a seed we acknowledged to sew
In your lack of correspondence creating a foe; It goes against all I know
Against all I feel
Like sending a love letter and refusing to seal
An envelope of unrequited love, a paper cut too deep to heal
I’ll always for forgive you. Because loving you is easier than hating your faults
A syncopated friendship, a stumble in life’s waltz
Still it’s your fault
And I hate you for making me love in your absence
And constantly talking about you in the past tense
The most crippling gestures are your read receipts on the message I sent
And days later I question in silence
