Ryuichi Sakamoto Love And Hate (feat. Holly Johnson)
[Intro]
Love
Love will survive us
Hate
Hate will divide us
But
But something inside us
Unites us with love
[Verse 1]
Drugs on sale at the schoolyard gate
People die because bigots hate
Violence out there on the street
Isolation's all we meet
"You deserve just what you get"
Says the moral majorette
As the movie star kills
The kids get their thrills
[Chorus]
Love
Tears you apart
Deep in the heart
Hate
Those left to pray too
Love
The hole in the sky
Hate
With angels can fly
In this day and age
Of constant outrage
Should it be allowed
Love lost in the crowd
It's a disgrace
It's in your face
They become desensitised
Everything gets televised
[Verse 2]
Now I don't believe in censorship
But surely certain things they hit
Like calling out for genocide
Saying queers should be crucified
Minorities fight between themselves
Perpetuating living hells
Like playing to the hands of hate
Stop it now before its too late
[Chorus]
Love
Love will survive us
Hate
Hate will divide us
But something inside us
Unites us with love
Love
Love will survive us
Hate
Hate will divide us
But something inside us
Unites us with love
[Outro]
Love
Love will survive us
Hate
Hate will divide us
Love
But something inside us
Hate
Unites us with love
Love
Tears you apart
Hate
Deep in the heart
Hate
Those left to pray too
Love
The hole in the sky
Hate
With angels can fly
