Why Do You Try So Hard to Hate Me Lyrics

Sometimes, I wake up in the sun
Everyday, it burns me like no-one
Could ever be like me
Everyone has faltered now we're gone

You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard?

Sometimes, I wake up in the sun
Everyday, it burns me like no-one
Could ever be like me
Everyone has faltered now we're gone

You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard?

So take your songs tonight
I don't feel the hurt inside
I am bruised and I am broken
And don't I feel the hurt inside
I am taking my exit now
I am making my exit now
And I'm not sure where I'll be

You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard to hate me?
You're so bitter, I don't get it
Why do you try so hard?

Sometimes, I wake up in the sun 
Everyday, it burns me like no-one 
Could ever be like me 
Everyone has faltered now we're gone

You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard?

Sometimes, I wake up in the sun 
Everyday, it burns me like no-one 
Could ever be like me 
Everyone has faltered now we're gone

You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard?

So take your songs tonight 
I don't feel the hurt inside 
I am bruised and I am broken 
And don't I feel the hurt inside 
I am taking my exit now 
I am making my exit now 
And I'm not sure where I'll be

You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard to hate me? 
You're so bitter, I don't get it 
Why do you try so hard?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
