10,000 Maniacs - Tolerance Lyrics

Send "Tolerance" ringtone to your cell

The still and silence 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 it's wake

Now inside the 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 it's ball and chain

As it moves through this house it can't escape

Now inside the place we hide away

We hear it near and hope it turns away

Turn away turn away turn away

Turn away turn away
