Why Don’t You Love Me lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was reading Blood Meridian on the hood of my car
Fantasizing wild ponies and electric guitars
I was contemplating storm clouds on the edge of the sky
It's best you don't ask questions if you can't handle why

[Chorus]
Why don't you love me, honey?
Why can't it be love?
What's it got to be?
Anything
Why ain't I enough?
Why don't you love me, honey?
What can I prove?
I just assumed you hate me
Than to try and make do
I just assumed you hate me
Than to try and make do

[Verse 2]
I threw a coin at my reflection
On the edge of a lake
And then I rode off in the sunset
On the back of a snake
Some say the devil is a woman
Some say the devil is a man
I think the devil is a painting
You just don't understand
[Chorus]
Why don't you love me, honey?
Why can't it be love?
What's it got to be?
Anything
Why ain't I enough?
Why don't you love me, honey?
What can I prove?
I just assumed you hate me
Than to try and make do
Oh, I just assumed you hate me
Than to try and make do

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Why don't you love me, honey?
Why can't it be love?
What's it got to be?
Anything
Why ain't I enough?
Why don't you love me, honey?
What can I prove?
I just assumed you hate me
Than to try and make do
Yeah, I just assumed you hate me
Than to try and make do
[Outro]
Heave yourself a sigh, babe
You can be relieved
You ain't gotta lie no more
And I ain't gotta make believe
