why i hate it here dyed red 2011

The Maine

I remember when the sidewalk ends
Caught a shiner and a bloody lip
You know I try to be an optimist
But it s bringing me down
Bringing me down
When all I had was love to give
This city never gave a shit
Tell me, why did I put up with it?
Bringing me down, bringing me down

The broken pieces of my heart are scattered round this town
Add them to a list of reasons I don t come around

All the walls are stained with memories
I tried, I can t erase
Even if I burned it down, I fear
I d find another reason why I hate it here
All the streets are paved with jealousy
I tried but can t escape
Even if I burned it down, I fear
I d find another reason why I hate it here

The air out here is poisonous
With all the preachers and the politics
Turning lovers into hypocrites
Bringing me down
Bringing me down (down)

Every crowded room I m in
I see your face somehow (I see you)
Add them to a list of reasons I don t come around

All the walls are stained with memories
I tried, I can t erase
Even if I burned it down, I fear
I d find another reason why I hate it here
All the streets are paved with jealousy
I tried but can t escape
Even if I burned it down, I fear
I d find another reason why I hate it here

Oh, you know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it here
You know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it here
Oh, you know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it here

All the walls are stained with memories
I tried, I can t erase
Even if I burned it down, I fear
I d find another reason why I hate it here
All the streets are paved with jealousy
I tried but can t escape
Even if I burned it down, I fear
I d find another reason why I hate it here

Oh, you know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it here
You know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it here
Oh, you know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it
Oh, you know I hate it here
