I'D Rather

I'd rather end this with anger,

If I don't I'll come back to you like a beggar.

I'd rather end with hatred towards you,

Because deep down I know I still love you.


I'd rather end this detesting you in every way,

If I didn't I would be on my knees asking you to stay.

I'd rather see you as my eternal enemy,

If I didn't I would continue to love you endlessly.


I'd rather wish you the worst than the best,

If I didn't I know I wouldn't pass this test.

I'd rather destroy your painful memory today,

If I don't it will destroy me day by day.
