Hate When You’re Happy Songtext
von Paloma Faith

New fire in your veins, pretty young things
Running all over town
When hopper went down, blood in your crown
Tell me, should I curse him now?
I play it cool, kept it aloof
′Cause, baby, you know I'm proud
You and your brand-new house
Wish I could burn it down

Saw your potential, but I hate the way you proved me right
Stepped out my shadow, now you′re bathing in this holy light
It's cold, but I'm not sorry
′Cause somebody′s gonna get what's mine
You know I hate when you′re happy


I lost it all, just so I could see you win
I guess you're better off without me
And it hurt to let you go, but would′ve broke me in the end
I guess you're better off without me
Pleasure is a devil in the dark for me
Your happiness, a bullet in the heart for me
You′re moving on a little bit of fuckery, it's agony
That you're better off without me
′Cause you′re better off without me (hate when you're happy)

I gave you these years and wasted these tears
The pictures you left still here
Soon as we end, you′re shedding your skin
You watch it all disappear

Saw your potential, but I hate the way you proved me right
Stepped out my shadow, now you're bathing in this holy light
It′s cold, but I'm not sorry
′Cause somebody's gonna get what's mine
You know I hate when you′re happy

I lost it all, just so I could see you win
I guess you′re better off without me
And it hurt to let you go, you would've broke me in the end
I guess you′re better off without me
Pleasure is a devil in the dark for me
Your happiness, a bullet in the heart for me
You're moving on a little bit of fuckery, it′s agony
That you're better off without me
′Cause you're better off without me (I hate seeing you smile)


You know I hate when you're happy
(Don′t tell me about your good fortune)
You know I hate when you′re happy
(I hate it, I hate it)
You know I hate when you're happy
You know I hate when you′re happy, happy

I lost it all, just so I could see you win
I guess you're better off without me
And it hurt to let you go, you would′ve broke me in the end
I guess you're better off without me
Pleasure is a devil in the dark for me
Your happiness, a bullet in the heart for me
You′re moving on a little bit of fuckery, it's agony
That you're better off without me
′Cause you′re better off without me (hate when you're happy)
