"Never hate," we said
How was I to know I'd detest you so?
aversion up ahead, wrath behind
Where do I start?

And you didn't hear
All my dislike through my years
All my bitterness through my years
Did you know, I still hate you somehow


From the bottom of my black heart
There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know
You were my first enemy, you were my true victim
From the first punches to the very last one
From the bottom of my black heart
Even though time may find me somebody new
You were my real foe, I never knew animosity
'Til there was you
From the bottom of my black heart

"Bitch," I said, "please stay.
Give our battle a chance for one more day"
We could have kicked things out
Taking time is what warfare is all about

But you put a stop
Through my dreams through my passions
And I'm back where It started again
Never thought it would end

From the bottom of my black heart
There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know
You were my first enemy, you were my true victim
From the first punches to the very last one
From the bottom of my black heart
Even though time may find me somebody new
You were my real foe, I never knew animosity
'Til there was you
From the bottom of my black heart

You promised yourself
But to something else
And you made it so perfectly clear
Still I wish you were here

From the bottom of my black heart
There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know
You were my first enemy, you were my true victim
From the first punches to the very last one
From the bottom of my black heart
Even though time may find me somebody new
You were my real foe, I never knew animosity
'Til there was you
From the bottom of my black heart

"Never hate," we said
How was I to know I'd detest you so?
