i hate u, i love u ft. olivia o’briengnash99rank/position

If you’re looking for a dark, piano-centered track, I recommend “i hate u, i love u ft.
olivia o’brien.” This song is one of gnash’s signature works and features singer-songwriter Olivia O’Brien.
While it may sound like a simple breakup song with a trendy, understated melody, the actual content is strikingly heavy in mood.
It’s a “yami” song that portrays the painful love story of a woman who, despite being used by the person she loves, still can’t let him go.
If you’re in a similar situation, be sure to check out the Japanese translation of the lyrics.
