War is something that 
    I despise 
 
For it means destruction of 
    innocent lives 
War means tears in thousands of 
        mother's eyes 
When their sons go out to fight to 
        give their lives

   War is the enemy of all 
        mankind  
The thought of war blows 
         my mind  
Handed down from generation 
    to generation  
Induction destruction  
Who wants to die

   War has shattered many 
 young men's dreams  
Made them disabled bitter 
      and mean 
 
 
Life is too precious to be 
 fighting  wars each day  
War can't give life it can only  
    take it away

   Peace love and 
          understanding  
There must be some place for 
   these things today  
They say we must fight to keep 
         our freedom  
But Lord there's gotta be a better 
          way  
That's better than
