[Verse 1]
There's something somewhere scratchin' silently inside of me
It's always with me somewhere growin' — feedin' steadily
Without a line from who we are to what we claim to be
Every time we lose ourselves, we find our destiny
[Pre-Chorus]
We hurt and kill the ones we love and give to charity
And then we, and then we
Smile at those we hate and feed on their prosperity
Until we, until we…
[Chorus]
Hate, we hate our shadows
We hate our shadows
Don't look back
[Verse 2]
Beamin' through the brightest moment when there's hell to pay
Sealing up inside ourselves, we hush it all away
Responding badly to the news that everything's okay
So kill ourselves tomorrow just to push us through today
[Pre-Chorus]
We hurt and kill the ones we love and give to charity
And then we, and then we
Smile at those we hate and feed on their prosperity
Until we, until we…
[Chorus]
Hate, we hate our shadows
We hate our shadows
Don't look back
[Bridge]
I hate living this way
So why can't we change?
I hate living this way
So why can't we change?
We change forever
[Break]
Hate, we hate our shadows
Don't look back
[Outro]
Hate, we hate our shadows
Don't look back
