"Why Don't You Love Me" lyrics

"Why Don't You Love Me"

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

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

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

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

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

Heave yourself a sigh, babe
You can be relieved
You ain't gotta lie no more
And I ain't gotta make believe
