Non-Violence

I can’t comprehend the mentality of,
To live and to die by the sword,
And power’s the same,
No not in my name,
Cos I have and I am no ones Lord,
You can’t make a hammer and not bang in a nail,
For what other use does it have?
Act upon love,
And they’ll throw away guns in the end.

So tense
And so stretched
Any more
Will end in less

So tell me oh why must the protest all stop,
When that moment of silence begins?
One shot is fired,
Then peace just retires and gives in,
Don’t make something,
Out of nothing,
It won’t do you good.

So tense
And so stretched
Any more
Will end in less

Tell me, Dear
Are you comfortable?
