I have to block out thoughts of you so I don't lose my head
They're crawling like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I'm alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride
A nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you
Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you love me
Just to put it in my face?
And will you never try to reach me
It is I that wanted space
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways
Yeah, ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
I'm sober now for three whole months
It's one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one thing that always tore us apart
Is the one thing I won't touch again
In a sick way I want to thank you
For holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars on myself
You were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinions
On things like suicidal hate
You made me compliment myself
When it was way too hard to take
So I'll drive so fucking far away
That I never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart
To leave me behind
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways
Yeah, ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
And with a sad heart, I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street
For every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy
I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes crying
And I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling
"Make it go away!"
Just make a smile come back
And shine just like it used to be
And she whispered
"How can you do this to me?"
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you
Hate me in ways
Yeah, ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what's good for you
For you
For you
For you
They're crawling like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I'm alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride
A nervous bleeding in my brain

Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you love me
Just to put it in my face?
And will you never try to reach me
It is I that wanted space
Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Anyway, this song has made me FEEL more than any other song before.
My daughter has personality disorder. I feel for ya, been there done that. She disappears into this pain that I cant help her with, it hurts me to see her hurt so bad. She says this song reminds her of us and I tend to believe that. It is an awesome song. I just felt for you when I seen your message and wanted you to no that there are us out here that no what your going through. Hang on its a bumby ride. Take care.
Sorry to hear about your son. Sadly, I suspect that that may be me in a few years with my oldest daughter.
Anyway, I actually think the message is not him having hope, but him trying to break away from his girlfriend (or another loved one) because he feels like a burden to them:
"An ounce of peace is all I want for you
Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you love me
Just to put it in my face?
And will you never try to reach me
it is I that wanted this"
It's obvious this loved one was trying very hard to help, not get away from him:
"While I was busy waging wars on myself
You were tying to stop the fight"

To the porno reference someone stated it's loneliness and that's 100% correct. Watching his home movies of "family" make a porno feel like home...that's the extent of the love in his life. I once heard heroine addicts can't feel the meaning of love only that they feel wanted. Rather sad
