Despise Lyrics by Excuse 17

Excuse Seventeen

1994

I don't want to go
And I just want to stay
And I don't want to go
To your dumb party
And I just want to do
What I want to do
And I just want to do
What I want to do
And I just want to stay away
From you, so just fuck off, today
In this one way
I know what is true
I know I could hurt you
So if you hurt me
Like I could hurt you
This is what this girl can do
I will pull the leash tighter
I will hang the noose higher
I will burn a bigger fire
And I will call your bluff, liar
In this one way
I know what is true
I know I love to hate you
So if you think this is a love song
You would be wrong
This is more like my hate song
So just fuck off today
I will pull the leash tighter
I will hang the noose higher
I will burn a bigger fire
And I will call your bluff, liar
And I don't want to go
And I just want to stay
And I don't want to go
To your dumb party
And I just want to do
What I want to do
And I just want to stay away
From you, so just fuck off, today
