CocoRosie – Tears For Animals lyrics

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

Hoarse and hollow, I tried to swallow
Pistols, nightshade, ghosts and gallow
All you fellows climb me like a staircase, wore me down
Smooth from footfall, wore me down
(wore me down)

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

So long sweet thing, my old man
Left me grieving, black and blue and tan
I’ve the feeling you’ll be kneeling
When the day turns forever into night

Hope for healing if you’re willing

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?

Orphan girl, child, sing along
Stop the slaughter of our daughters!
Poisoning the water
Heart strings broken
Wearily tuned to the moon
Bastard widows born marooned
Nameless, faceless black-eyed soul
Slave to sorrow, find your way home

Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
(Hope for healing if you’re willing)
Do you have love for humankind?
(hope for healing if you’re willing)
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
Do you have love for humankind?
