Stephen Bard - With All This Hate Lyrics

The sins of someone else
Lay heavy on the skin
Hear it in the blame of history
Smell it blowing in the wind
The past can never be undone
Nor should it ever be erased
Don't know why it can't be learned from
Everyone's been burned some
They know it's hard for us to see
The things in common we could celebrate
With all this hate

The media's a whore
It's purpose long decided
Governments at war
Corrupted and misguided
The stupidest reality
Superficiality
The ones who want control
Place no value on the soul
They know it's hard for us to rise or recognize
Empathize or elevate
With all this hate
With all this hate
With all this hate

Ooh entitled is the word
After all that's what we are
Need a 'safe' environment
That 'joke' can leave a scar
It's where every mouth is open now and every mind is shut
Everyone so easily hurt by the dishing of the dirt
And yet there's always going to be a jubilee
For an unkind thing to say
No matter what

You'll never hear from me what you should ever think
But if we don't agree
Why does it always have to be such a stink?
There is no silver lining to the bitching or the complaining or the whining
Only skin getting thinner
God forbid I'm not the winner
Of this adolescent contest
This petulant debate
Hell the device that makes it easier for us to talk makes it harder to communicate
I just hope that we remember that love is where it's at
And I pray it's not too late
With all this hate
With all this hate
With all this hate
With all this hate
