Song Lyrics

I walk among the criminals all day long
I walk among the suit and tied
I walk among the socialites all day long
They snappin' at me, tryin' to bite

But I can show you how I just wanna make it right
I'm too lazy to work and too nervous to start a fight

'Cause everywhere I go, yeah, I'm fast asleep
Dreaming of a perfect crime
And everyone I know, yeah, they're just like me
They need hate to love
Hate to love
Hate to love
Why don't you wake me
Don't you wake me
Why don't you wake me up?

Don't shoot the messenger all day long
I could be wrong, I guess
I saw you running though, you came back
But to the wrong address

I can tell you're wrong, I just wanna tell you why
But I'm too lazy to work and too nervous to catch your eye

Said I
Hate to love
Hate to love
Wake me up
Hate to love

Between the cracks, take it all back, always
I found a new way to make you stay with me

Don't shoot the messenger
You know I've come too far
Don't shoot the real right talk
And you know you had me wrong

'Cause everywhere I go, yeah, I'm fast asleep
Dreaming of a perfect crime
And everyone I know, yeah, they're just like me
They need hate to love
Hate to love
Hate to love
Why don't you wake me
Don't you wake me
Why don't you wake me up?
Hate to love
Hate to love
Wake me up
Hate to love
