Everything around me ignites my rage I'm burning with animosity Everywhere I look another war to wage Filled with purpose of singularity Got my hollow points, got my magazines Wrote my manifesto of decay Commencement of the k**ing at the university Antipathy, the lesson of the day They never should have pushed me away [Chorus:] Student bodies lying dead in the halls A blood splattered treatise of hate Cla** dismissed is my hypothesis Gun fire ends the debate All I ever wanted was a little affection But no one ever gave it to me My hate primer's the result of my rejection You'll die for it, and I'll die for thee The halls of learning now a shooting range My final exam with a gun k**ing everyone who ever thought me strange My bloody dissertation has begun Pomp and circumstance replaced by bullet wounds The smell of gunpowder on the air Murder is the nightmare of this afternoon My malevolence, your cross to bear All because of my despair [Chorus] Hate lives in me Hate lives in me Hate-I need it and it needs me Hate-I feed it and it fed me Hate-I breed it and it bred me Hate Hate-I read it and it read me Hate-I lead it and it led me Hate-I bleed it and it bled me I breathe it in, and it breathes through me While SWAT teams swarm all around the quad The symposium of slaughter carries on Smith and Wesson is my only God And the line in the sand has been drawn Valedictorian of violence Graduation day, one bullet remains Charles Whitman set the precedent I pull the trigger and blow out my brains They never knew I was insane [Chorus] I instruct you And I destruct you I deconstruct you Until my hate has f**ed you
