A Part Hate Lyrics - Hat Full Of Stars - Cyndi Lauper

Somber sister 

This is a strange and bitter fruit 

Because you taught me to sing 

And the rhythm in my heart 

And the rhythm in my feet is - 

Why are the rainbows 

Stolen from the sky 

And locked up in boxes 

Yellow, black, red and white 

Like birds in their cages 

Beating their wings on the bars 

And there's a song that they're singing 

It's a word in the world 

It's a word in their hearts 

A part hate 

I heard a man say 

Tear apart hate 

And I saw hope in his face 

A part hate 

Where the color of love 

Slips away 

Why are the children 

Carrying guns, not books 

Drug dealing, not learning 

The golden rule 

And the idea of freedom 

Not just the same 

Castle in the sky 

Haunted by white-sheeted ghouls 

Filled with hate me 

And hate you 

And proud of it too 

A part hate 

Heard a woman saying 

Tear apart hate 

And I saw hope in her face 

A part hate 

Where the color of love 

Slips away 

Why are the people 

Running down the block 

Rock throwing, not knowing 

What else to do 

But I'm just a spectator 

And I can never know the pain 

But when I hear 

That whip cracking 

I cry out tears of anger 

I cry out tears of shame 

A part hate 

I heard myself say 

Tear apart hate 

And I saw hope in my face 

A part hate 

Where the color of love 

Slips away 

Tear apart hate tear apart hate 

Tear apart hate tear apart hate 

Tear apart hate tear apart hate 

A Part Hate
