Maddening Disdain Lyrics
And it came again, like tears for a long lost friend
Tears that find their rest
Amidst words too sordid to comprehend
And it came bearing gifts
Of pain, frankincense, and her
None had a home here, none but the pain
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine, come twisted flowers
Come blistered soul, torturing disdain
And the wholeness that is only found in you
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine
And it came bearing gifts
Of pain, frankincense, and her
None had a home here, none but the pain
And it left once, alone amidst my words I stood
Uninviting of its presence, this time it's left for good
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine, come twisted flowers
Come blistered soul, torturing disdain
And the wholeness that is only found in you
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine
And when it's gone forever, a better hand is dealt
And when it's left forever, I then can find myself
Tears that find their rest
Amidst words too sordid to comprehend
Of pain, frankincense, and her
None had a home here, none but the pain
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine, come twisted flowers
Come blistered soul, torturing disdain
And the wholeness that is only found in you
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine
Of pain, frankincense, and her
None had a home here, none but the pain
Uninviting of its presence, this time it's left for good
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
Come blistered soul, torturing disdain
Feel the fervor growing but the hate is stronger
My heart was whole with you
But the pain was mine
And when it's gone forever, a better hand is dealt
And when it's left forever, I then can find myself

The 'I' in the song appears to at the same time enjoy the pain left behind from a girl (either death or failed relationship) and also hates its presence because it reminds him (I'm assuming it's a him) of her in the first place. The pain - the disdain - is both pleasure and pain to him.
