A poem or lyric about being aware of other people’s hatred.

Cry Me a River

Cry me a river of crocodile tears,

Tell me sweet lies to calm my fears,

While you plan and plot my demise,

For I am the one you truly despise,

Yes cry me a river of crocodile tears,

Pretend that you don’t enjoy my fears,

Your hatred you cannot disguise,

For I am the one you truly despise!

    This one has the ‘wow’ factor. I loved it. Only negative I have is that I think the title should have been ‘Cry me a River of Crocodile Tears.” That said, I’m only nit-picking. This is astounding stuff. I’m impressed.
