Hate Breeds
Rising from Anguish: The Power to Defy, The Soap Girls' 'Hate Breeds' Unveiled
Lyrics
I’m so bored of all the things you say
I'm tired of hearing your repetitive statements
Not a day goes by when I don’t wish you away
I wish for your absence every day
Seems to be that you don’t think too much
You seem to lack deep thought
I know this now I have had enough
I've reached a point where I've had enough
Run your mouth off till you feel the dirt
Talking recklessly until you experience consequences
The way you die is the lesson that hurts
The way you meet your end is a painful lesson
When I scream then I think of you I know what’s in your head
Expressing frustration through screams, understanding your thoughts
Hate breeds hate sees everything all empathy is dead
Hate begets hate, destroying empathy
When I dream then I dream of you you’re bloody and broken
Dreaming of you in a brutal and broken state
Get away get away get away the walls are closing in
Feeling trapped, wanting to escape as walls close in
I won’t stand here and die I won’t fade
Refusing to passively endure, rejecting fading away
Turn off the lights look the other way
Avoiding reality, turning away from unpleasant truths
How you stand here and lie you will pay
Condemning dishonesty, emphasizing accountability
I’m not gonna die die today die today die today
Determined not to succumb to death today
I’m the door you slam the dog that you beat
Symbolizing mistreatment with slammed doors and beaten dogs
I’m the scar you scratch until it bleeds
Representing enduring pain through scratched scars
Life is shorter as our hearts grow cold
Life becoming shorter as hearts turn cold
Hold your breath now and just do as you’re told
Commanding obedience, breath held as instructed
There is nothing you can say to me
Rejecting the impact of words on the speaker
My hearts been hardened by the rage I feel
Heart hardened by overwhelming rage
When I scream then I think of you I know what’s in your head
Revisiting frustration through screams and understanding
Hate breeds hate sees everything all empathy is dead
Reiterating the destructive cycle of hate
When I dream then I dream of you you’re bloody and broken
Dreaming of the antagonist in a vulnerable state
Get away get away get away the walls are closing in
Desire to escape intensifies as walls close in
I won’t stand here and die I won’t fade
Refusing to accept death or fading away
Turn off the lights look the other way
Avoiding unpleasant truths, turning a blind eye
How you stand here and lie you will pay
Highlighting the consequences of dishonesty
I’m not gonna die die today die today die today
Determined not to succumb to death today
You look at me like I’m beneath you
Feeling judged or looked down upon
Don’t you wanna know how I see you
Expressing a desire for the antagonist to understand their perspective
Throw another stone you’ll die alone
Warning against hostility, predicting a lonely end
Bleed your blood until you’re bone
Encouraging self-reflection until vulnerability is exposed
Talk more shit your tongue will split
Cautioning against further negative talk
Think you can run but I never miss
Asserting the inability to escape consequences
Say another word I’ll break your face
Threatening physical harm in response to more words
Don’t talk to me you better know your place
Establishing boundaries, demanding respect
I won’t stand here and die I won’t fade
Refusing to passively endure, rejecting fading away
Turn off the lights look the other way
Avoiding reality, turning away from unpleasant truths
How you stand here and lie you will pay
Condemning dishonesty, emphasizing accountability
I’m not gonna die die today die today die today die today
Determined not to succumb to death today
