Soldiers of Peace

Soldiers of peace are not fighting a war
Are not looking for enemies behind every door
Are not looking for people to kill or to maim
Soldiers of peace are just changing the game

Men who were fighting for all of our lives
Are now fighting for children, for homes and for wives
Fighting for the memory of all who fell before
But the soldiers of peace just can't kill any more

So come all you warriors who live for the fight
Come listen to somebody, somebody who might
Have been there before you and they have the right
They've been dying to tell you the score
The old warriors don't want you to hurt any more

Soldiers of peace can still hear the cries
When the people were screaming and losing their lives
When bodies were broken and spirits were torn
The soldiers of peace do not want you to mourn

So come all you warriors who live for the fight
Come listen to somebody, somebody who might
Have been there before you and they have the right
They've been dying to tell you the score
The old warriors don't want you to hurt any more

Soldiers of peace are not fighting a war
No more, no more, no more, no more
