Hawk and the Dove

from My Shoes by Tret Fure

/

lyrics

How many people
How many lives
How many times
Humanity dies
Where lies compassion
Where lies the love
We run in fear
As the Hawk devours the Dove

Nothing prepares us
Nothing we’ve seen
Our wars are fought abroad
And on the big screen
We let the darkness in
Let out the love
And run in fear
As the Hawk devours the Dove

Half mast we fly through the time that tears apart
Once more we cry for the beating of the heart
And if hatred took the time for letting go
We just might find that lost rainbow

So many families
So many lost
We fight these senseless wars
At any cost
We pay the most though
For the loss of love
And run in fear
As the Hawk devours the Dove

Chorus:

Let out the mourning wails
Let go the rage
The only way to win
Is to turn the page
And find a million ways for showing love
And run now more
Till the Hawk becomes the Dove
