Dear Hate

Dear Hate

I saw you on the news today

Like a shock that takes my breath away

You fall like rain cover us in drops of paint

I'm afraid that we just might drown

Dear Hate

Well you sure are colorblind

Your kiss is the cruelest kind

You could poison any mind

Just look at mine

Don't know how this world keeps spinning 'round and round

You were there in the garden like a snake in the grass

I see you in the morning staring through the looking glass

You whisper down through history and echo through these halls

But I hate to tell you love's gonna conquer all

Dear Hate

You were smiling from that Selma bridge

In Dallas when that bullet hit and Jackie cried

You pulled those towers from the sky

But even on our darkest nights we'll keep spinning 'round

You were there in the garden like a snake in the grass

I see you in the morning staring through the looking glass

You whisper down through history and echo through these halls

But I hate to tell you love's gonna conquer all

Dear love

Just when I think you've given up

You were there in the garden when I ran from your voice

I hear you every morning through the chaos and the noise

You still whisper down through history and echo through these halls

Then tell me love's gonna conquer all

Gonna conquer all
