E     |A     |C    D    |E     | x2

E
You keep on accusing me
   A
Of making your life misery
    C              D               E
But if that's not abusing me, what isn't
          E
You wanna be my friend, well it's too late
   A
My love for you has turned to hate
      C            D             E
And I think it's a permanent condition
    E
You say you wanna make the peace
A
Smile and turn the other cheek
  C                   D             E
I can't put myself in such a weak position
        E
Now I'm willing to accept this fate
        A
You and me just can't cohabitate
   C        D                            E
We agree to hate and that's our last decision

E       A
Hatred, hatred
       C               D          E
Is the only thing that keeps us together
E       A
Hatred, hatred
       C               D        E
Is the only thing that lasts forever

Driven by hate, driven by hate
Driven by hate, driven by hate

       D
On the surface I'm a mild-mannered person
                                      A
That's until you scratch the animal inside
         D
Then you bring out all my animal aggression
        E
I gotta hatred for you that is never gonna die

(guitar riff)
Driven to hate, driven to hate
Driven to hate, driven to hate

Chorus:
Hatred, hatred
Is the only thing that lasts forever
Hatred, hatred
Is the only thing that keeps us together

While races try to integrate
Nations try to gravitate
Towards equal rights, regardless of religion
Politicians might decree
For the sake of all humanity
Love and peace instead of a collision
You and me accept reality
There's no way that we can agree
The world can't make us alter this position
At least you and I know where we stand
We can't be friends, walk hand in hand
My hostility for you defies description

Hatred, hatred
Is the only thing that keeps us together
Hatred, hatred
Is the only thing that lasts forever

Driven by hate, driven by hate
Driven by hate, driven by hate
Hate's the only thing we have in common
There's no escape, we'll always be this way
So we might as well just learn to live together
'Cos we're gonna be this way till our dying day
Driven by hate, driven by hate
Driven by hate, driven by hate

Chorus

If you keep on putting me down
Rub my name into the ground
I'll drag the dirt all over town about you
And if you spread the filth on me
I'll only have one remedy
I'll spill the beans, you'll see I've got a mouth, too

Chorus (2x)

Yeah, hatred
Your attitude is downright rude
Your jokes appall me, they're so crude
Why don't you just drop dead and don't recover
I'm the mirror to your mood
You hate me and I hate you
So at least we understand each other
Hatred, hatred is the only thing that lasts, what is it?
Hatred, hatred

Hatred, hatred
Is the only thing that lasts forever
Hatred, hatred
Is the only thing that lasts forever
