10,000 Maniacs - Tolerance lyrics

Your rating:

is torn with violence.
 A loud breaking sound
 in the night is made.
 Hear it grow, hear it fade.
 The sound you're hearing,
 the sound you're fearing
 is the hate that parades
 up and down our streets,
 coming within bounds and within reach.
 Now, inside the place we hide away,
 we hear it near and hope it turns away.
 Turn away
 There's something seething in the air we're breathing.
 We learn slash and burn is the method to use.
 Set a flame, burn it new.
 We're overpowered.
 We kneel, we cower,
 we cover our heads.
 Feel the threat of blows
 that will come and the damage
 that will be done in its wake.
 Now, inside this place we hide away,
 we hear it near although it's miles away.
 We hear it near and hope it turns away.
 Turn away
 This house divided, we live inside it.
 Hate's dwelling place is
 behind our door in fitful nights.
 Hear it walk the floor and hear it rave
 as it moans and drags along its ball and chain,
 as it moves through this house it can't escape.
 Now inside this place we hide away.
 We hear it near and hope it turns away.
 Turn away
