Suppose it started with a whisper into an ear now it started with a whisper
Suppose it started with a reason a really good reason for a different season
Suppose you're smiling to their faces keep them in their places but smiling to their faces
Suppose it started with a whisper into an ear now it started with a whisper

I hope we can erase all our hate and save somebody

Suppose we hide behind religions though they're just traditions we hide behind religions
Suppose the truth is in the people not hiding in a steeple the truth is in the people
Suppose the age becomes a virtue even though it shouldn't do the age becomes a virtue
Suppose we hide behind religions though they're just traditions we hide behind religions

I hope we can erase all our hate and save somebody

Suppose we are arguing black and white when there are clearly shades of gray and we can see them on any single given day the good bad and ugly mix with bad good and pretty trying to keep a connection to other people in the city misconceptions and hate are the enemies of the state that exist between newfound friends from different stations and nations suppose its time to look past ancient words and their dogma that keep us mired in an ignorant state of horror

I hope we can erase all our hate and save somebody
