“sometimes, even killing yourself wouldn’t be enough. like when you realize that your entire life has been lived under a presumption of free will, but all you’ve been able to make of it is a sad parody of everything you used to hate. slowly, without trying, everyone becomes what he despises most.”

[Verse 1]
I started out drinking
It stays that way
Was not at all human
And I killed another day
[Pre-Chorus 1]
On the wall, there's another earth
At my neck, there's another knife
Another wrinkle in my skin
Another kick that I can't feel
[Chorus 1]
I started out hating myself and when I'm through
I've gotta have something to hate, and I guess it's you
A man's gotta have something to hate, guess I'll do
And when I'm through with myself, I'll start on you
[Verse 2]
Everything I do makes me want to die
I started out drinking, I wanna know why
I started out drinking, it stays that way
Was not at all human
And I killed another day
[Pre-Chorus 2]
On the wall, there's another earth
At my neck, there's another knife
Another wrinkle in my skin
Another trip that I can't make
[Chorus 2]
A man's gotta hate someone, and I guess I'll do
And when I'm through with myself, I'll start on you
I started out hating myself, and now that I'm through
I'm looking for someone to hate, guess you'll do
