Contradictions.
I hate rules, I hate laws
I don’t have friends, only foes;
I am a rebel without a cause
An oak in a forest of willows.

I hate deception and I hate lies
Truth is the tears in my eyes;
I am a free bird who never flies
A drifter who always cries.

I hate pleas, I hate weakness
I know nothing of love’s sweet caress;
I am a searcher for forgiveness
A dreamer in Hades’ dark abyss.

I hate frailty and I hate pain
In my palms lay bloodstains;
I am a stranger in the rain
A crow in a nest of cranes.

I hate my life, my whole existence
Hunger and thirst my blood won’t quench;
I am a loser without any chance
A rusting post in a picket fence.
