Kill your idols
Kill your fathers
Kill your mothers
Kill your sisters
Kill your brothers
Kill your aunts
Kill your uncles
Kill your best friends
Kill your lover

Kill your idols
so you have no one to look up to
No one to try and become
No one to encourage your dreams

Kill your family
Kill your friends
Kill your lover
So there’s no one left you care for
No one left to mourn you when you die
No one who you’ll miss and will miss you

Kill them all
And only then
can you kill yourself
when you have nothing left
to live for
Kill Your Idols is a band. Some of you may know them. I'd never heard them but i was looking through some records (33 1/2) and their name struck me. So I wrote it down and a week or so later the line popped into my head and I started writing. This poem is very different from my usual writing.

You've ended resuming everything. Everything said before lies in this lyrics. But best of all, the reason can be found here, so you made it pretty powerfull.
