Cyndi Lauper - A Part Hate Lyrics
Somber sisterThis is a strange and bitter fruitBecause you taught me to singAnd the rhythm in my heartAnd the rhythm in my feet is -Why are the rainbowsStolen from the skyAnd locked up in boxesYellow, black, red and whiteLike birds in their cagesBeating their wings on the barsAnd theres a song that theyre singingIts a word in the worldIts a word in their heartsA part hateI heard a man sayTear apart hateAnd I saw hope in his faceA part hateWhere the color of loveSlips awayWhy are the childrenCarrying guns, not booksDrug dealing, not learningThe golden ruleAnd the idea of freedomNot just the sameCastle in the skyHaunted by white-sheeted ghoulsFilled with hate meAnd hate youAnd proud of it tooA part hateHeard a woman sayingTear apart hateAnd I saw hope in her faceA part hateWhere the color of loveSlips awayWhy are the peopleRunning down the blockRock throwing, not knowingWhat else to doBut Im just a spectatorAnd I can never know the painBut when I hearThat whip crackingI cry out tears of angerI cry out tears of shameA part hateI heard myself sayTear apart hateAnd I saw hope in my faceA part hateWhere the color of loveSlips away...Tear apart hate tear apart hateTear apart hate tear apart hateTear apart hate tear apart hate...
