I try not to hate

I try not to hate

but you're making it very difficult

every time you open your mouth

you poison the atmosphere

every word you say

makes me dislike you even more

you have made your opinions

very, very crystal clear

          you and your backwards way of thinking

          you and the bullshit in your brain

          you're worse than the most spoiled child

          all you ever do is complain

I try not to hate

but you make it so damn hard

the way you think of nobody

except, of course, yourself

you curse all those around you

everybody inconveniences you

you blame every little thing

on somebody else

          I try to have compassion

          but this time compassion can't be found

          it get bad when you're on the warpath

          nobody wants you around

I try not to hate

it used to be so easy

until the exact moment

you came into my life

now I am angry

and sad and defensive

I try not to hate

but you make it all right
