You’d Like Me More

Lyrics
I went to church today, laid down in the pews
I don't trust the Bible; I'm just trying to relate to you
Fear the anchor you tied to your hands
Doing things you hate, I'll do the same so I can understand
Why you wear white
And you have sex with boys you don't like
To hide the mess
You're way too high, hunched over
No one's holding on
To your hair, they just cheer you on
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
Oh, oh, oh
Bed your guilt; could I please it, too?
Lathered in affection, pay attention
Whilе your angels come to anger, I likе it
They choke me, and it turns me on
The silence, I light it
So easily, you passed it on
Tucked in tight, and I can't fight the walls
Chip at night, I like this cruel comparison
Now mad at my own selfish ways
Sitting down, it's easier to say
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
(If I, oh, oh, oh)
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
(If I didn't care)
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
(You, you, you, you, you)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh
You'd like me more if I didn't care about you
You'd like me more if I didn't care
