Why's it so Hard to Hate You?
Valerie Gray
You're that evil,
pulling me to you
And acting like you haven't got a clue
Playin' your mind games
Tryin' to break me.
Everytime that I think your gonna stop these games,
Everytime I hope you really do,
But you keep on going, shattering all my trust in you.
I should hate you!
I've got more than enough reasons to!
The games you play, makin' me place trust in you.
But those evil eyes keep pulling me in.
Where'd you get that power?
You're like a magnet to me.
Then you do one of your evil deeds,
Pull a stupid stunt
Just to shatter me!
How does that even work!
You're my enemy!
Answer one question for me:
Why's it so hard to hate you!?
Is the secret your emerald eyes,
the way you always deny
everything you do,
Or is it everything about you?
The way you talk,
big and bad,
The way you speak,
loud and clear,
The way you walk,
proud and tall,
Or is it just way you do everything?
You're like a magnet to me,
Make me want to believe you're really good...
Then you do one of your evil deeds!
Pull a stupid stunt,
just to shatter me!
How does that even work?
You're the enemy!
Whenever I feel, that's not the case anymore...
You do one of your evil deeds!
Pull a stupid stunt!
Just to shatter me!
But you still pull me to you,
no matter what you seem to do!
Why's it so hard to hate you?
It's always just so hard to hate you!
I don't know what to do!
You're my enemy, pulling tricks on me
These mind games won't seem to stop!
Are you just that cruel?
To mess with my emotions.
Can't you just,
Punch, kick, or shoot at me instead?
Like I always do to you?
But no, instead you pull me in,
with those hypnotising eyes.
And it's just so hard to hate you!
And it's so easy to trust you!
I wanna believe my heart
that believes all of those lies you tell,
and not believe my eyes
that show me everything you do!
Why's it so hard to hate you?
And why's it so easy to trust you,
despite everything you've done to me?
Am I just going crazy?
Wanting to believe your lies,
Hoping that you've finally changed
But you always have to prove me wrong,
Like you want me to hate you!
Then, why is it so hard?
Why is it so hard to hate you?
You're just evil scum, messin' with my head
Pulling all these crazy deeds,
Just to mess with my sanity!
What did I do to you,
to deserve this torture?
You started this all,
Every little thing!
It's so hard to hate you!
The only choice is to,
stop all of these lies,
stay away from you,
and just plain out get rid of you!
That would stop all of these feelings inside of me,
Stop all of these tricks
Stop my heart from believing that you're telling the truth,
When I know that everything that comes out of your mouth is a lie!
Was this your intention from the start?
To pull me to you?
Did you start this hero act,
just to mess with my head?
You're the enemy...
So please explain to me,
Why is it so hard to hate you?
Why's it so hard...
to hate you?
It's just so hard...
to hate you.
So that is it. It's a song that fits Valerie, in my opinion. Did you notice in the show that every single time one of Danny and Valerie's truces are broken, they always have another one for a little while, before that one breaks. And Valerie keeps accepting them. Like something's pulling her to Danny Phantom.
What she means in this is that something about Phantom seems to always pull her in, and she wants to believe he's evil, but her heart keeps telling herself otherwise. She wants to hate him, but truthfully... she doesn't. She doesn't hate him, but she feels that she should hate him. So, that's what she tries to do.
