Hated By The Powers That Be

The lights go out across the land
But I am here to hold your hand
You whisper softly to the dead
As though the words were in your head
For what are we but jelly and sticks
In a sack of skin just getting our kicks
Kicks, getting our kicks

I am love
I am love
Never forget that I am love
Never forget that I am love

All days are numbered, we've had our lot
Do we accept our fate or do we start to rot?
'Cause what the hell do they expect from us?
That we'll just sit around getting wrecked
And getting depressed

I am love
I am love
Never forget that I am love

And you used to feel as proud as me
'Cause we are love
We are love
And we're hated by the powers that be
(Hated by the powers that be)
Yes, we're hated by the powers that be
(Hated by the powers that be)
Hated by the powers that be

For what are we but jelly and sticks
In a sack of skin just getting our kicks
Kicks, getting our kicks

I am love
I am love
Never forget that I am love
Never forget that I am love

And you used to feel as proud as me
'Cause we are love
We are love
And we're hated by the powers that be
(Hated by the powers that be)
Yes, we're hated by the powers that be
(Hated by the powers that be)
Hated by the powers that be
