Hate Is the Star (Song of the Torment) / Hearts Are Hurting (Part 2)
guitar chords lyrics
(Gabrielle) It's Dahak.
This is where it started.
I can't! I can't!
(Xena) No, Gabrielle! / (Gabrielle) I can't!
(Xena) Look. Gabrielle, think.
Everything about this world has been a torment.
We've been guided through it for a reason.
Whatever happens, we have to go through it together.
(Torment) It begins very small
Seems like nothing much at all
Just a germ, just a speck, just a grain
But the seed has been sown
And before you know it's grown
It has spread through your life like a strain
And its power will strangle your love and your joy
And before you know it's grown
It has spread through your life like a strain
And its power will strangle your love and your joy
And its hunger consumes, for it lives to destroy
(Torment + Hatred ) Hate is the star
It becomes who you are
Not the hated but the hater
Has a torment that's greater
It will eat you alive
Consume you and spit you out
Hate's gonna win, that there's no doubt about
Hate doesn't care who you are
Hate is the star
Learning hate is an art
Even people who are smart
Can be caught, can be crushed, can be creamed
Hate has swallowed you whole
Did you think you're in control?
Hate you thought, hate you spoke, hate you dreamed
All your hate gave me substance
Your lives are undone
It's your eye of destruction
Your hatred has won!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
(Xena) I never dreamed that we'd be distanced by a hate
That all the trust we had would go
(Gabrielle) How could I hate you?
(Xena) How could it come to pass, this awful twist of fate?
(Gabrielle) How could I hurt you?
(Xena) This madness can't be so
(Gabrielle) I can't believe it
(Xena) I never dreamed that any barriers could rise
(Gabrielle) Or that I'd ever see the stranger in your eyes
(Xena) Our hearts were hurting both the same
(Gabrielle) The hurt was tearing up our souls
(Xena) The fury in us made us blind
(Gabrielle) We could not see beyond the pain
(Xena) If we can turn again to love
(Gabrielle) If we can heal these open wounds
(Xena) We'll leave this hatred far behind
(Gabrielle) So not a trace of hate remains
(Gabrielle and Xena) We'll overcome our damaged past
And we'll grow stronger side by side
To stand together through the storms
We're safe 'cause love will be our guide!
