[Verse 1]
You say I'm your boyfriend
Then treat me like a race
Make me run in circles
Just to see my face
You call me when you're lonely
Hang up when I'm near
Pull me in for comfort
Push me out for fear
[Chorus]
If you want me
Say it
If you hate me
Leave
Don't you dare keep chasing
Just to watch me bleed
You call it love
I call it cruelty
You wanna play
Then play it truthfully
Boyfriend
Good
Then let me be
Run if you hate me
Stay if you love me
[Verse 2]
You throw around "forever"
Like spare change on the floor
Then slam another rumor
Right against my door
You like that I get angry
You laugh when I explode (yeah)
You light me like a fire
Then walk me on this road
[Chorus]
If you want me
Say it
If you hate me
Leave
Don't you dare keep chasing
Just to watch me bleed
You call it love
I call it cruelty
You wanna play
Then play it truthfully
Boyfriend
Good
Then let me be
Run if you hate me
Stay if you love me
[Bridge]
I could beg for meaning
You would change the rules
I am done rehearsing
For a game you use (hey)
Either hold me gentle
Or let my number fade
[Chorus]
If you want me
Say it
If you hate me
Leave
Don't you dare keep chasing
Just to watch me bleed
You call it love
I call it cruelty
You wanna play
Then play it truthfully
Boyfriend
Good
Then let me be
Run if you hate me
(yeah, run if you hate me)
Stay if you love me
