There's a grey cloud in the sky that's raining just for you and me
It's breaking through the sunlight exposing our insanity
Every night we'd try to make things right only ended in a fight
I'd put the past behind but I can clearly see the things I don't want to be

I don't want to be the one that you hate
I don't want to be another ghost
I don't want to be your biggest mistake
I don't want to be just another notch on your bedpost

I don't want to be the one that you hate
I don't want to be another ghost
I don't want to be your biggest mistake
I don't want to be just another notch on your bedpost

There's a bird in the sky that's singing just for you and me
It's singing dirges from the past exposing bitter memories
Ever day we'd say we'd be okay we only ended up in each others way
I'd let it go but you don't know me and I just want you to see

I don't want to be the one that you hate
I don't want to be another ghost
I don't want to be your biggest mistake
I don't want to be just another notch on your bedpost

I don't want to be the one that you hate
I don't want to be another ghost
I don't want to be your biggest mistake
I just want to be the one you hold close

I don't want to be the one that you hate
