Lyrics of I Love You (But I Hate Your Friends) by Neon Trees
verse
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
chorus
I love you
But I hate your friends
They are desperate
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
This emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?
verse
They never lock on music
They bitch about it and call it 'used to be'
So now I can't refuse it
I dig your playing 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
chorus
I love you
But I hate your friends
They are desperate
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
This emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?
bridge
They're always on to the next big thing
They wanna buy but they can't barely stand
I never wanted you for just a friend
I hated when you lied to me
But I just let you lie to me
chorus
I love you
But I hate your friends
They are desperate
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
This emptiness would end
Stop pretending
If you knew what I know would you be ready to go?
Would you be ready to go?
outro
I love you
I love you
But I hate your friends
outro
I love you
I love you
But I hate your friends
