Hatred in the Love

​When the winds blow out,

When the silence screams too loud.

Yes it's not so confusing,

But I can't keep from controlling.

​Maybe you could have some tears,

Maybe I could see fears.

For the waiting for heaven,

Like a bit of the raining.

​If you could have been so brave,

To face the ghost inside the cave.

We’re dancing on a sharpened blade,

Watching all the colors fade.

​[Chorus]

It’s a bitter taste of hate and love,

Like a storm below and a star above.

I’m reaching out to hold your hand,

But we’re sinking deep in the shifting sand.

Yeah, it’s the heavy weight of hate and love.

​[Bridge]

(Tempo slows down, a walking bass line enters)

The gray smoke rises from my glass,

Waiting for this ghost to pass.

I love the way you break my heart,

I hate that we’re never truly apart.

Outro (The Melancholic Saxophone Solo)

​(The vocals fade out on the word "love," leaving space for a soulful, late-night tenor saxophone solo.)
