In the end we seek the same
An end to violent death
You see it your way I see it mine
With each and every breath
We may be right we may be wrong
It's sometimes hard to tell
All I know is you should be sure
Before you load the shell
To take a life at any time
Is a shocking thing to do
To feel truly justified
Makes a Solomon of me and you
You may feel that Bush is right
To risk one sweet child's life
You may feel his judgement's strong
And you would wield the knife
But sometimes rage from afar
Is easier on our souls
If we don't have to see
The gore and bone and bullet holes
I hope you're right when you say
All this is justified
There can be no bringing back
Those who've bled and died
