I love this video for various reasons. I love the animation style. There are many cartoons from the 70s and 80s done by an italian artist with the little white guy and the hand with the pencil, and they always tripped me out when i was a kid, in a good way. I also like the message of the song, and lastly, when the red guys go flying up in the air, many of them go up as if they are being pulled up by the orange chakra, which is exactly how i flew up into the sky in a dream i had about the end of this world. It was a great dream, ending with me coming home to my friends who were all cheering me on.

Why can't we be (together)?
Can't you love me, don't hate me
I don't see (why can't we live together)
Maybe we could get it on (maybe we could get along)
Should be our destiny
There's a cold streak living (inside us)
There's no rainbows... just bullets and bombs
If you want to rise up
We can make this hate stop
Now don't you want to rise up

[Chorus:]
We've been giving hate a chance
(We've got all this love to give, you know)
And the love will be running out for us
Can you feel the dreams of life
We're hoping we can still survive
As the wind carries every dove away

So why do we see (these colours)
It's only skin deep, don't mean a thing
So clear (underneath this we're all brothers)
Can't you see it's killing us
(Can't you see it's killing us)
Can't you see it's killing me
Trigger happy fantasy
So stand up and be (so strong now)
Freedom is not so far away
If you know you want to rise up
We can make this hate stop
Now don't you want to rise up

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
(The wind carries every dove away, The wind carries every dove away, every dove away)
Dove, dove, dove, dove, dove, dove, dove

Now you've been taking our dignity for too long
I want to save this sanctity that we hold
And who's right and who's wrong
We're not so different anyway
Words are in this song
Can't we stop the fighting?

[Chorus/Outro]
Coz we've been giving hate a chance
Don't give this hate a chance
We've got all this love to give, you know
And the love will be running out for us (we’ve got all this love to give)
(and that the love’s still alive, survive)
Can you feel the dreams of life
We're hoping we can still survive
As the wind carries every dove away
Don't give this hate a chance (can’t we stop the dove away)
We've got all this love to give, you know
That this dream's alive, will still survive (can’t we stop the dove away)
Until no more people have to cry
Don't give this hate a chance (can’t we stop the dove away)
We've got all this love to give (that’s the wind carries every dove away)
That this dream's alive, we’ll still survive
And the love will be running out for us
Until no more people have to cry
Don't give this hate a chance
We've got all this love to give, you know
That this dream's alive, we’ll still survive
Until no more people have to cry
