Hey!

So here’s what I’ve been working on in the past few months (yes that took way too much time…), a new version of I Hate It All with a sound thats getting close to what i have in mind. The synth doesnt sound exactly as i want it, but im buying a new one this week so that should take care of that…

Other than this, to make the story short, i started to have something that looked like a band this winter, but then it was too complicated to describe the direction i wanted to take, without having at least one song representing the sound i was looking for.

And also, it was hard to convince the right musicians to join since that sound i was describing was not at all what they were hearing on the recordings. That’s why recording this was a step I needed to take, but now that this is done, I’m really excited to finally be able to go back to writing so keep an eye out for new songs, and hope you enjoy this one!

Lyrics & Chords:

I Hate It All

VERSE 1

F#m A
You want to live your life
Underneath the spotlights
Lots o' boys by your side
They'll do what you decide

You've got style
I'm not gonna lie

You want to be someone,
To be missed when you're gone
But when it's overdone
Then it's nowhere as fun

Stop the stunt
I'm not gonna run

CHORUS

F#m A E F#m
I hate how you dance
I hate how you play
I hate every clever word you say
I hate it all
I never loved someone like this before

I hate when you hide
I hate that you're right
God, I hate your charming perfect smile
I hate it all
I never loved someone like this before

VERSE 2

I want to know the girl
Not the fancy cover
I want to hear the words
That nobody has heard

Open up
What are you scared of?

If you hang on to miss Cool
I'll live by your rules
You can fire away
I will dodge it all day

Just know i won't be far
Ready when you are

CHORUS

BRIDGE 

Bm F#m Bm C#
I guess there's only one way
Only one way to explain
Gotta admit we like the love
But we just love the pain

CHORUS x2
