End of War
Mankind must put an end to war
Or war will end mankind
Ask just who you are fighting for
And who's the mastermind
Question what we're doing here
How long can we sustain
The guilt that feeds upon our fear
We pass the buck but not the blame
It's easy to be bold and brave
From a thousand miles away
It's easy to pontificate
Live to fight another day
It's easy when the bullets are
An echo of a ricochet
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away
And once again we find ourselves
Upon the fields of war
It seems like all our yesterdays
Are on repeat but furthermore,
It would appear we didn't learn
The lessons from/of our past
The war we fought to end all wars
Secured a peace that didn't last
It's easy to be bold and brave
From a thousand miles away
It's easy to pontificate
Live to fight another day
It's easy when the bullets are
An echo of a ricochet
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away
War within mankind
Or war will end mankind
Ask just who you are fighting for
And who's the mastermind
Question what we're doing here
How long can we sustain
The guilt that feeds upon our fear
We pass the buck but not the blame
It's easy to be bold and brave
From a thousand miles away
It's easy to pontificate
Live to fight another day
It's easy when the bullets are
An echo of a ricochet
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away
And once again we find ourselves
Upon the fields of war
It seems like all our yesterdays
Are on repeat but furthermore,
It would appear we didn't learn
The lessons from/of our past
The war we fought to end all wars
Secured a peace that didn't last
It's easy to be bold and brave
From a thousand miles away
It's easy to pontificate
Live to fight another day
It's easy when the bullets are
An echo of a ricochet
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away
War within mankind
