War On Love
We all need somethin' to help us feel okay
Sometimes it's booze, sometimes it's hate
You waged a war on love, you said the bible told you to
Don't know which God you're thinkin' of
I've been around the world so many times and
No one has ever tried to turn
Me into somethin' like I wasn't born because
Who to love, you cannot learn
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
You're faced with feelings you can't understand, so
You try to put them under thumb
You're so afraid that they might think it's you
You point your fingers and condemn
You say that love's between a woman and a man
You turn it into us and them
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
You're faced with feelings you can't understand, so
You try to put them under thumb
In love, we find our higher selves
A state of grace not found alone
How could you keep that to yourself
That which you cleave unto your bones?
Would you deny your daughter or your son
If they came with outstretched hands?
Or would you turn and run
Because you don't understand?
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
You're faced with feelings you can't understand, so
You try to put them under thumb
We don't want your war on love
We don't want your way on love
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
Sometimes it's booze, sometimes it's hate
You waged a war on love, you said the bible told you to
Don't know which God you're thinkin' of
I've been around the world so many times and
No one has ever tried to turn
Me into somethin' like I wasn't born because
Who to love, you cannot learn
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
You're faced with feelings you can't understand, so
You try to put them under thumb
You're so afraid that they might think it's you
You point your fingers and condemn
You say that love's between a woman and a man
You turn it into us and them
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
You're faced with feelings you can't understand, so
You try to put them under thumb
In love, we find our higher selves
A state of grace not found alone
How could you keep that to yourself
That which you cleave unto your bones?
Would you deny your daughter or your son
If they came with outstretched hands?
Or would you turn and run
Because you don't understand?
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
You're faced with feelings you can't understand, so
You try to put them under thumb
We don't want your war on love
We don't want your way on love
We don't want your war on love no more, no
We don't want your war on love
