Hate This and I'll Love You Lyrics
It's about god. Maybe he really hates god and wants to destroy him. Maybe he was born into some religion he hates. Perhaps he's a deist...oh well obviously no one will agree with me, but my meaning is way better than some relationship bullshit.
yeah i agree with you
yeah i agree with you
"You left us far behind So we all discard our souls And blaze through your skies So unafraid to die"
"You left us far behind So we all discard our souls And blaze through your skies So unafraid to die"
he's obviously talking about about god and he thinks god abandoned us so we reject him. really don't see how you could interpret it as a relationship..but whatev, its muse so who knows??

I think it is about his hate for the devil, wich is a part of all of us. And we are born, in the end, to destroy this dark side of our personality.

And you are completely right about that relationship bullshit people come up with. It is so clear to see how the term love has been raped, there is only one love. From that love, the love for a woman derives.

When I heard this I thought it was clearly about his loss of faith in religion and how he feels like all those years were wasted where he felt boxed in and tied to this deity he started to have doubts about.
"You're making me feel Like I was born to service you But I am growing by the hour"
"'Cause I was born to destroy you I am growing by the hour I'm getting strong in every way"
Now in his maturity he learns the truth about religion and is growing stronger in his new perspective because of past experiences. But that is just how I see it.. Matt seems to take an agnostic view in all his songs relating to religion. I love this song.
the last few notes and the insects in the background give the album an awesome sense of closure dont ya think? also listening to this song loud through earphones is a surreal feeling =)
I believe this a song about his relationship with his mother. When kids are little they would do anything for their mother, becasue they believe their mother would do anything for them. When we become teenagers we become upset when we don't get what we want and often blow this out of proportion making such claims as our parents don't love us ("you led me on"). Also I believe this is from the teenage perspective of wanting to break free becasue it talks about "growing by the hour". This tone has darker themes too, such as "I was born to destroy you", which could possibly be an allusion to the species of spider that kills its mother shortly after hatching. The line "so unafraid to die" may be about the cockiness, arrogance, and ignorance of teens and the reckless things they do.
you're making me feel...like I....was born to destroy you!!! i love it....he's amazing....GO MATT!!!!
I believe the answer here is far simpler than anyone has posted so far. This song is, specifically, about Radiohead. In a broader sense, it's about Muse's relationship with the music community. Muse is constantly being compared to Radiohead, and many people accuse Muse of riding on the coattails of Radiohead, of copying them, of borrowing from them, and so on.

This song is a statement of independence from that thought process, that Muse sets out to be original and different, this song is mocking Radiohead by titling itself "Hate This and I'll Love You" because unlike Muse's other music,...
This song is a statement of independence from that thought process, that Muse sets out to be original and different, this song is mocking Radiohead by titling itself "Hate This and I'll Love You" because unlike Muse's other music, the musical style in this song IS similar to Radiohead, listen to the guitar, especially in the very beginning. Muse is saying in a very discreet way that this song is what they would have been if they had borrowed heavily from Radiohead, and pleads with us to hate it, to see an understand that they are a very different band.
Muse addresses the other band directly:
"Oh I am growing tired Of allowing you to steal Everything I have You're making me feel Like I was born to service you But I am growing by the hour"
"You left us far behind So we all discard our souls And blaze through your skies So unafraid to die"
This is not a love song, "you left US far behind" is not about two people in love, that statement can't be made when talking about just 2 people, it's about 2 bands, but in a broader sense, Muse and the music community.
Also I apologize for the weird reply, but apparently there is no "edit" or "delete" button for posts here, so it will have to stay that way.

I'm pretty sure he says...
So UNafraid to die
Possibly Not...
yes, it is unafraid
i think it's maybe about a relationship (hehe) where the chick controls every aspect of it... "I am growing tired of allowing you to steal everything I have you're making me feel like I was born to service you"...? But then the next half of the song is completely didfferent so I think I'm wrong. One of the best Muse lyrics in this song though... "So unafraid to die" oh wait, so is "I was born to destroy you"... they are such powerful lines and can mean so much when you put your mind to it
yeah i kinda agree with all you, first of all, muse does have powerful lines, they are fucking awesome, but i think it is about a girl controlling him and then like he says he is getting stronger and able to resist, and eventually he does, it is just what the words say
I think Matt is saying that people put so much pressure on you to act in a certain way and everytime you think you are OK people take that away from you.."steal everything I have, you're making me feel like I was born to service you.."- He doesn't want to have to just live up to stereotypes and expectations, he wants to be free to be himself. This song is about him gaining the control and power to resist the force of people and to ignore what they say, he knows he has the capacity to destroy them, because if no-one listens then they will cease to matter.
seems a bit weird for a song title. dusnt exactly sell itself does it? :P
