Verse 1 Alarm clock screaming like a knife in my brain Another dead morning, another day of the same Bills on the table like a gun to my head Every damn dream already buried and dead Boss breathing down like a parasite king Another empty promise that the future will bring But the mirror don’t lie and the truth cuts deep I’m a ghost wide awake in a world asleep Pre-Chorus Every second like a chain on my chest Every heartbeat pounding rage in my head Chorus I HATE MY LIFE — let it burn in the flame Every scar, every lie, every ounce of the pain I HATE MY LIFE — hear the thunder I scream Break the cage, tear apart this machine If the world wants war, then I’ll give it tonight Strike the match — watch it all ignite I HATE MY LIFE — but I won’t go down quiet Verse 2 City lights flicker like a funeral pyre Another lost soul feeding into the fire Everyone smiling with a knife in their teeth Selling fake hope on a dead-end street Every friend turned ghost, every promise broke Every prayer just drowning in the smoke If this is living then I’m already gone Just a ticking bomb waiting to go off Pre-Chorus Every second like a chain on my chest Every heartbeat pounding rage in my head Chorus I HATE MY LIFE — let it burn in the flame Every scar, every lie, every ounce of the pain I HATE MY LIFE — hear the thunder I scream Break the cage, tear apart this machine If the world wants war, then I’ll give it tonight Strike the match — watch it all ignite I HATE MY LIFE — but I won’t go down quiet Breakdown No gods. No saviors. Just fury in my veins. Rip the sky open Let the darkness rain Bridge (screamed) You tried to bury me alive in the dirt But every scar just made the monster worse From the ashes of the life you denied I rise screaming — I will not die Final Chorus I HATE MY LIFE — hear the fire in my lungs Every word like a bullet from a loaded gun I HATE MY LIFE — but the hate makes me strong I’ll tear the whole damn system down Strike the match — watch the empire ignite From the ashes I’ll take back my life.
