Art of Making Someone Hate You
I've mastered the art
of making someone loathe you
first you get to know them
small talk about their likes and hobbies
then you get a little closer
work on a couple of projects together
say how you love when they're around
hook, line, and sinker
finally you tell them the truth
you know, the one they say they want to hear
but really don't
could be as little as saying their hair's bad
but the reality is they just wanted lies
breakfast, lunch, and dinner
morning, noon, and night
lies!
you might say
"why not skip that last step?"
well because I can't help but be myself
they say they want me to be myself
but no, they want me to be someone else
the person they created in their head
which really no one could live up to
so step by step
easy as one, two, three
you too could have someone hate you
