Hate Me

[Verse 1] In your sorrows, I reside, The weight of darkness deep inside, I am the storm that shakes your mind, The chains that keep your will confined. I am the fear you can’t escape, The quiet scream, the twisting fate, In your despair, I'll be the guide, To lift you where the light can’t hide. [Pre-Chorus] If it means you'll fight and rise, Then let me be the tears you cry, The shadows that will haunt your sight, The darkness where you find your might. [Chorus] Hate me if it means you'll see, The strength within to set you free, I’d rather be the pain you face, Than watch you fade without a trace. I'll be the darkness in your eyes, If it will spare your life tonight, I’d rather be what you despise, Than watch the light within you die. [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] In every choice, a tale is told, The chains of fate you can't withhold, But in your heart, a fire will burn, A chance to defy, a fate to spurn. I am the guilt you can’t deny, The weight that pulls you from the sky, But in your soul, you have the flame, To rise above, to break the chain. [Pre-Chorus] If it means you'll find the light, Then let me be the dark of night, The struggle that will build your will, The shadows where your heart is still. [Chorus] Hate me if it means you'll see, The strength within to set you free, I’d rather be the pain you face, Than watch you fade without a trace. I'll be the darkness in your eyes, If it will spare your life tonight, I’d rather be what you despise, Than watch the light within you die. [Instrumental Interlude] [Bridge] In every tear, a seed will grow, A testament to what you know, In every scar, a lesson learned, In every pain, a virtue earned. Hate me for the sins I've cast, And let your woes become the past, In your efforts lies a spark, To guide you through the endless dark. [Chorus] Hate me if it means you'll see, The strength within to set you free, I’d rather be the pain you face, Than watch you fade without a trace. I'll be the darkness in your eyes, If it will spare your life tonight, I’d rather be what you despise, Than watch the light within you die. [Outro] So curse my name, and hate me now, Let that hate become your vow, To fight against the fate I weave, To rise above, to dare believe. I’ll be the darkness that you face, If it can be your saving grace, For in the shadows of your fight, [Silence] You'll find the strength to reach the light. [End] [End]
