Stop The Hate

Lillian Axe · Other Songs - Lillian Axe

Noel: Hey, Adam, remember when we were real little

and everything seemed so perfect like a fairy tale?



Adam: Yeah, little brother, but that was then and this is now.



Read the story that I'm sure you've heard before,



Watch the signs come every day,



A turn of your back, it slips away.



See the vultures as they climb all over you,



In the blinking of an eye,



Taken for granted, kiss me good-bye



Make believe come true



I'll be protecting you



You're all I have



Chorus:



We're just wasting time



While we're running blind



Stop the Hate, Before it's too late,



We're just losing time,



Seeing colorblind



Stop the Hate, One more chance before we go,



I'm so sick and tired of your complaining,



Tie your hands behind your back,



With your eyes shut, we fade to black.



Their promises are lies



And smiles behind their lying eyes



Take your money for the cause



They crush you with their vicious jaws,



What happened to integrity, with me for you



And you for me



It's all a dream so kiss your life good-bye



If wishes did come true I'd be protecting you



You're all I have



Chorus
