Analysis of Hallowed Be Thy Name



You fight with me
So I fight with you
You want to hurt me
So I want to hurt you
Do unto others
As they do unto you
I can't fight the rage
Of the tempest we started
I can't fight the urge
The anger still inside
What makes me hate you
It surely isn't me anymore
I fight fire with fire
You are unapproachable
I fight the demons in my heart
Which find me so reproachable
Warning me of the future
That I am strong still....
