Bowling For Soup – Holding On To That Hate Lyrics

Holding On To That Hate Lyrics by Bowling For Soup
(The song is about warning someone that they’ll never be happy while holding on to their hate.)

I’ve been beaten up
I’ve had my share of beat downs
I’m scared of the sound
But the quiet seems to overwhelm me

Most of the *** I say (*** he says)
I don’t really mean it (he doesn’t mean it)
But the *** I do well I guess it comes
Between me and you

And there she goes
Straight for the throat
Did you ever really find me endearing
Oh
How do I know
Do we ever really know

What to believe
And who can I turn too
Cause you’ve never been there
And I thought you to know
You’ll never find your way to be happy holding on to that hate

There’s a hole in my heart (a hole in his heart)
I must be wholehearted (Who farted)
And I have to admit that
That I totally stole that line from Extreme

And there she goes
Straight for the throat
Did you ever really find me endearing
Oh
How do I know
Do we ever really know

What to believe
And who can I turn too
Cause you’ve never been there
And I want you to know
You’ll never find a way to be happy holding on to that hate

I don’t wanna think about it
But it’s always on my mind

Making *** about me man
I do it all the *** time
And everything’s just fine

And there she goes
Straight for the throat
Did you ever really find me endearing
Oh
How do I know
Do we ever really know

What to believe
And who can I turn too
Cause you’ve never been there
And I thought you to know
Why can’t you let yourself be happy
You’ll never find a way to happy
Holding on to that hate

Holding on to that hate
You’re holding on to that hate
Isn’t that freaking great (It’s great)
You’re holding on to that hate
You’re holding on to that hate
And it’s freaking great
(Oh wait)
