Why can't we be (together)?
Can't you love me, don't hate me
I don't see (why can't we live together)
Maybe we could get it on (maybe we could get along)
Should be our destiny
There's a cold streak living (inside us)
There's no rainbows... just bullets and bones
If you want to rise up
We can make this hate stop
Now don't you want to rise up
Chorus:
We've been giving hate a chance
(We've got all this love to give, you know)
And the love will be running out for us
Can you feel the dreams of life
We're hoping we can still survive
As the wind carries every dove away
So why do we see (these colours)
It's only skin deep, don't mean a thing
So clear (underneath this we're all brothers)
Can't you see it's killing us
(Can't you see it's killing us)
Can't you see it's killing me
Trigger happy fantasy
So stand up and be (so strong now)
Freedom is not so far away
If you know you want to rise up
We can make this hate stop
Now don't you want to rise up
Chorus
Bridge:
(Cant we stop the dove away, cant we stop the dove away, every dove away)
Dove, dove, dove, dove, dove, dove, dove
Now you've been taking our dignity for too long
I want to save this sanctity that we hold
And who's right and who's wrong
We're not so different anyway
Words are in this song
Can't we stop the fighting?
Chorus/Outro
Coz we've been giving hate a chance
Don't give this hate a chance
We've got all this love to give, you know
And the love will be running out for us (weve got all this love to give)
(and that the loves still alive, survive)
Can you feel the dreams of life
We're hoping we can still survive
As the wind carries every dove away
Don't give this hate a chance (cant we stop the dove away)
We've got all this love to give, you know
That this dream's alive, will still survive (cant we stop the dove away)
Until no more people have to cry
Don't give this hate a chance (cant we stop the dove away)
We've got all this love to give (thats the wind carries every dove away)
That this dream's alive, well still survive
And the love will be running out for us
Until no more people have to cry
Don't give this hate a chance
We've got all this love to give, you know
That this dream's alive, well still survive
Until no more people have to cry
