|
The still and silence is torn with violence. |
|
A loud breaking sound in the night is made. |
|
Hear it grow, hear it fade. |
|
The sound you're hearing, the sound you're fearing |
|
Is the hate that parades up and down our streets, coming within bounds and within reach. |
|
Now, inside the place we hide away, we hear it near and hope it turns away. |
|
Turn away... |
|
There's something seething in the air we're breathing. |
|
We learn slash and burn is the method to use. |
|
Set a flame, burn it new. |
|
We're overpowered. |
|
We kneel, we cower, we cover our heads. |
|
Feel the threat of blows that will come and the damage that will be done in its wake. |
|
Now, inside this place we hide away, we hear it near although it's miles away. |
|
We hear it near and hope it turns away. |
|
Turn away... |
|
This house divided, we live inside it. |
|
Hate's dwelling place is behind our door in fitful nights. |
|
Hear it walk the floor and hear it rave as it moans and drags along its ball and chain, |
|
As it moves through this house it can't escape. |
|
Now inside this place we hide away. |
|
We hear it near and hope it turns away. |
|
Turn away.... |
