The Skinny:

Nothing planned in advance. Almost stream of consciousness on each part. Each line came after the one before it. I did recut the guitar once the flow was clear so it made a better, you guessed it, flow. ; – )


War And Peace

I like to work so we can rest
I scrimp and save so we can spend
I have to fight to keep things calm
I’ll start a war cause I love peaceI’ll say a lot of things today
I only want to do what’s right
Our only enemy is time
Cause I don’t wanna talk or think things through
Cause you might change my mindThe world is on fire but I’m OK
It all burned down but I got away
There’s nothing left but we came out on top today

I’m looking for someplace to go
Maybe see some faces we know
I’ll make the rules and they’ll go along
I’ll keep ‘em around if they can stay in line
Or toss ‘em if they say I’m wrong

The world is on fire but I’m OK
It all burned down but I got away
There’s nothing left but we came out on top today

I’m waiting for justice
To see things my way my way my way
The goal of war is peace
The goal of war is peace
The goal of war is peace
The goal of war is peace

The world is on fire but I’m OK
It all burned down but I got away
The world is on fire but I’m OK
It’s all burned down but I got away
There’s nothing left but we came out on top
There’s nothing left but we came out on top today

The goal of war is peace
The goal of war is peace
The goal of war is peace
The goal of war is peace
