[Verse 1: Jonny Reeves]
Sister, I never saw you get your flowers
Living out in the cold and you were hanging by a thread

[Pre-Chorus: Joel Birch & Both]
For all these years, the blood, the sweat, the dread
The tears and voices in my head
They paint a picture of a disaster inside me

[Chorus: Jonny Reeves]
We can always see into the stars
But we can’t see the hurt inside our hearts

Everything that glitters isn’t gold
I’m sick of always sleeping in the freezing cold

[Verse 2: Jonny Reeves]
Brother, your heart was torn out by our mother
Dear lord, he’s sick of living between the sword and the wall

[Pre-Chorus: Joel Birch & Both]
For all these years, the blood, the sweat, the dread
The tears and voices in my head
They paint a picture of a disaster inside me

[Breakdown: Jonny Reeves & Joel Birch]
Hate is easy, hate is easy, hate is easy
You’ve gotta try and love yourself
(Hate, hate, hate) Hate it’s easy
(Hate, hate)

[Chorus: Jonny Reeves]
We can always see into the stars
But we can’t see the hurt inside our hearts
Everything that glitters isn’t gold
I’m sick of always sleeping in

[Bridge: Jonny Reeves & Joel Birch]

Woah oh, woah oh, woah oh
Hate is easy, love yourself
Woah oh, woah oh, woah oh
You better try and love yourself

[Outro: Jonny Reeves & Joel Birch]
(Hate, hate, hate) Hate is easy
(Hate, hate) You better try and love yourself
