Love in the Time of Hate
[Verse 1] The asphalt bleeds black in the dead of the night, As broken screens flicker with rage and with spite. They feast on the fear, on the venom and scorn, Another heart shattered, another soul torn. The vultures are circling the words that we choose, And every battle won is a life that we lose. The air tastes of poison, the sky's turning gray, And no one can tell you the reason to stay. [Pre-Chorus] The darkness is coming! The tide starts to rise! Can you see the hate in the whites of their eyes? [Verse 2] They put us in cages made of bitter beliefs, And feed us a diet of lies and of grief. They sharpen our teeth on the ones we oppose, And make us forget that we're both made of bones. The monuments crumble, the history's erased, A hollow rebellion, an empty disgrace. We're screaming at phantoms we've learned to despise, Blind to the demons in our own disguise. [Pre-Chorus] The darkness is coming! The tide starts to rise! Can you see the hate in the whites of their eyes? [Chorus] How do you find love in the time of the hate? When the world is a tomb and we're sealed by a fate? How do you find peace in the roar of the war? When all that we wanted is gone from our shore? How do you find life in the face of the grave? In the time of the hate, can we still be saved? [Verse 3] The final curtain's drawn, and the shadows descend. The last of our mercy is coming to its end. We're ready to march on a funeral pyre, Consumed by the ashes, consumed by the fire. The rage is a fever, the hatred's a storm, And nothing can keep us or the planet warm. The final war's coming, we're sharpening our blades, And we'll die with a whisper in the silent parades. [Bridge] But what if the cure… was not to destroy? What if the armor… was boundless joy? What if the weapon… was empathy's flame? What if we called them… by their human name? The hate has no power! The darkness will bend! With every kind action, a new day begins! [Interlude Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] The light shines on faces where shadows once grew, And a forest of kindness starts reaching for you. We see through the screens and the venom and all, And answer the whisper with a powerful call. We fight for the creatures with fur and with fins, We fight for a planet where healing begins. The sickness of hatred is starting to cease, And the world is embracing a powerful peace. [Pre-Chorus] The darkness is broken! The hate has dissolved! By the power of love, the whole world's resolved! [Chorus] We found the true love in the time of the hate! We opened the tomb and we conquered our fate! We found a new peace in the roar of the war! And found all we wanted and so much more! We found a new life in the face of the grave! In the time of the hate, love has come to save! [Interlude Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] The light shines on faces where shadows once grew, And a forest of kindness starts reaching for you.

The sickness of hatred is starting to cease, And the world is embracing a powerful peace. [Pre-Chorus] The darkness is broken! The hate has dissolved!
