No Peace, No End

[Verse 1] Where were you when the walls were crumbling? Where were you when the guns were rumbling? Where were you when the hounds of hell Took sisters and lovers away? Did you see me on a slippery slope? Wrong end of a telescope Do you even pause for breath As you sleepwalk through the day? [Chorus] Someday won't you Stand in my shoes And see the world I see? No hope, no friend No peace, no end [Verse 2] I'm ground between two stones Soon I'll be nothing but bones Who'll be my shining savior Before I turn to dust? Are you the hand that kills me? Are you the hand that saves me? When they both sell you down the river Which one can you trust? [Chorus] Someday won't you Stand in my shoes And see the world I see? No hope, no friend No peace, no end [Verse 3] In the peace museum there's a mangy dove To remind us all of universal love You can rent her out for your corporate dinner Feel good about yourself Geneva Convention they use as a pessary Olive branch is a fashion accessory In the big chess game there's only one winner And it's always someone else [Chorus] Someday won't you Stand in my shoes And see the world I see? No hope, no friend No peace, no end No hope, no friend No peace, no end
