I Love You (But I Hate Your Friends)

Neon Trees

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

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
I love you
I love you
But I hate your friends
