It begins very small
seems like nothing much at all
Just a germ, just a speck, just a grain

But the seed has been sewn
and before you know it's grown
It has spread through your life like a stain

And its power will strangle
your love and your joy
And its hunger consumes
or it lives to destroy

Hate is the star
it becomes who you are
Not the hated, but the hater,
as a torment that's greater

It will eat you alive,
consume you and spit you out
Hate's gonna win,
that there's no doubt about

It doesn't care who you are hate is the star!
Learning hate is an art,
even people who are smart

Can be caught, can be crushed, can be creamed
It has swallowed you whole,
did you think you're in control?

Hate you thought, hate you spoke, hate you dreamed
All your hate gave me substance your lives are undone
It's your eve of destruction your hatred has won
