SUMMARY DURATION DOWNLOAD
Vicious self-hatred is a hallmark of many psychological pathologies. Self-hatred is like a claw that is thrust into the bowels of the mind that then violently twists and contorts the delicate thought processes until the mind becomes feeble and crippled under the weight of all this internal turmoil. This song picks up where "Dad Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" left off, looking deeper into the disrupted mind of a man gone mad. 6:18

VERSE 1

	Biting his fingernails,
		pulling his hair.
	Clawing his flesh raw
		to silence the wails:
	the voices that fill up
		his suffering mind,
	that drown him in anguish
		and drive him towards
			self hatred.

CHORUS 1

	Hatred of the self.
	Hatred of the self.
	Hatred of the self.
	Self-hatred of the self.

BRIDGE

	Bring me my mother.
		Mother, my lover.
	Please help forgive me.
		Please save me from me.

VERSE 2

	Curled in a ball, tight,
		hugging his knees.
	Engulfed in the acid
		of his own private shame.
	The punishment served from
		the judge in himself:
	conscience, relentless,
		subjecting him to
			self hatred.

CHORUS 2

	Hatred of the self.
	Hatred of the self.
	Hatred of the self.
	Self-hatred of the self.

REPEAT TO END

	Hatred of the self.
	Hatred of the self.
	Hatred of the self.
