I Hate the Way I Act...

Everyone hates the way I act.
I hate the way I act.

I'm rude and mean, I hate everyone and everything.
But if only people knew I was truly nice
I've just been hurt far too many times.

And now I hide behind my hatred,
Rather than finding comfort in love.

I'd rather be safe and protected
Than vulnerable and burned.

So if everyone hates the way I act,
If I hate the way I act...

Then so be it.
