Become What You Hate Lyrics by Midtown

Living Well Is the Best Revenge

2002

[Verse 1]
I thought I found someone
I thought I had something I could trust
I still can't believe what happened
It's not that you lied to us
It's not that your friendship was all fucked
It's just that I can't see the real in you
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, for years I was afraid
Now I can finally say
[Chorus]
That I'm afraid that you've become
Everything that you had hated
I'm waiting
For this to blow away
Yeah
[Verse 2]
How could I have been so blind?
How could I've ignored so many signs?
Especially when my friends warned me
About your deceptive side
And that your friendship was a lie
Still I cannot see the real in you
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, for years I was betrayed
Now I can finally say
[Chorus]
That I'm afraid that you've become
Everything that you had hated
I'm waiting
For this to blow away (Yeah)
Yeah, I'm afraid that you've become
Everything that you had hated
I'm waiting
For this to
For this to blow away
[Bridge]
I've been working for
Something oh so fake
It's never too late
To correct the faults
So many others made
I know you don't care
About what's right or fair
I heard you say your future is looking so great
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm afraid that you've become (Afraid that you've become)
Yeah, I'm afraid that you've become (Afraid that you've become)
Yeah, I'm afraid that you've become
Everything that you had hated
I'm waiting
For this to
For this to blow away
Away
[Outro]
I've been working for
Something oh so fake
But I'm not working for you no more
