Rest In Peace

Let's talk of peace
Sounds so cliche
A novelty
Catch, phrase of the day

Middle index
Sign of the time
Just as complex
As water to

(Someone said give peace a chance)
And, that's all, that we're saying
(While we're sitting on the fence)
Pretending
(Our hearts are in the right place)
(But your face)
(Shows a trace of)
Hypocrisy
Don't tread on me
Now you can see

Make love
Not war
Sounds so absurd
To me
We can't afford
To say
These words, lightly
Or else our world
Will truly
Rest in peace

In the body

Let's not pretend
To justify
Rather amend
Where treasures lie

Straight through the heart
Peace can be found
That's where you start
Not all around

(Someone said give peace a chance)
And, that's all, that we're saying
(While we're sitting on the fence)
Pretending
(Our hearts are in the right place)
(But your face)
(Shows a trace of)
Hypocrisy
Don't tread on me
Now you can see

Make love
Not war
Sounds so absurd
To me
We can't afford
To say
These words, lightly
Or else our world
Will truly
Rest in
Peace

Make love
Not war
Sounds so absurd
Sounds so absurd
(We can't afford to say)
We can't afford to say
(These words lightly)
(Or else our world)
Or else our world
(Will truly)
Will truly
(Rest in peace)
Rest in peace

(Make love not war)
Make love not war
(Sounds so absurd)
Sounds so absurd
(To me)
To me

Make love
Not war
Sounds so absurd
To me
We can't afford
To say
These words lightly
Or else our world
Will truly
Rest in peace
