lyrics

Hate Song

Chorus

Somebody tell me why they like to hate

Tell me why they think it is so great

To lie, to die, to make people cry

To wither all of their innocence to rip off all of their love.

Can somebody please tell me what they I’m taking of?

I’m taking about war, they want more

Is that really what they need?

I’m talking about pain and poverty

Let’em rot and let’em bleed!

Cold eyes! Beckoning eyes!

Tell me what you see?

Do you see love or hate or do you see more?

Do you see me?

Somebody tell me how I can be free?

Society, dishonesty, duplicity!

Governmental science fair to shatter all our dreams

Pray to God, above, but our God’s not good enough

Can somebody please tell me what they think I’m talking of?

I’m talking about war, fuck peace!

Is that really what they need?

I’m talking about pain and poverty

Let’em rot and let’em bleed!

Envy and greed and all sorts of unkindly deeds

I’m talking about wrath and pride

That’s all that’s on their mind

I’m talking about hate in our faith

Like fish we bite the bate

Do you see love or hate or do you see more?

Do you see more?

Sorrow in the eye, the eye of the old man

Shrunken and beaten, battered forgotten

Sorrow in the tear, the tear of a child

Feathering in a world that can only be tough

Sorrow in the lines, the face of the widow

Staring blankly through visions of the past

Sorrow in the laugh, the laugh of the rich man

Just hiding beneath his suit and his tie

Chorus

Can somebody please tell me when it’s gonna stop!?
