Claybourne Elder - Never Wish War On A People lyrics

[Clown MC] You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war -- people people people You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war -- people people people [Michael] Fractions Not clear Not now Not here Oh my, oh dear I don't know where I am I am I am -- I'm at a [Michael & All] Party I remember a Party Tonight I'm gonna lose control [All] Boom [Michael] An explosion People are frozen Pictures of panic Painted onto their poses I am beholden For this mess -- mess All this distress All this unrest I'm running -- searching for the general -- is he To blame? And all the people they are screaming I can hear My name Time slows and I know I don't feel the same And I'm running for a reason that I can't explain [Anna] Hold my hand And walk with me [All] My life, my life, my life, my life, my life... [Clown MC] Come and disappear with no fear what it be like [Anna] Hold my hand And have mercy [All] My life, my life, my life, my life, my life... [Clown MC] Vanish into air, come and stare into the light You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war -- people people people [Michael] Fractions Insane My mind My brains fails explain The pictures I'm seeing [Michael & Willow] Willow black dress Mascara running Tears on her cheek And a preacher says something [Michael] Morning sky Looking dreary like a painting Painted by a guy Whose demise was waiting [Men] Boom -- [Michael] An explosion Coffin is open Willow all alone On her own in an ocean [Michael & Men] Of sad looking soldiers Lost without orders [Michael] I stretch my neck to see if I can get a glimpse of him Is Venice lying dead when I should have been next To him? I see a body how could this get the best of him I wish somebody else was lying there instead of Him [Anna] Hold my hand And walk with me [All] My life, my life, my life, my life, my life... [Clown MC] Come and disappear with no fear what it be like... [Anna] Hold my hand And have mercy [All] My life, my life, my life, my life, my life... [Clown MC] Vanish into air come and stare into the light [Clown MC] You never wish war on a people You never wish war -- people people people [Michael] (Clown MC) The seconds of your (You never wish was) Life just (On a people) Slow down, slow (You never wish was) Down, slow down (On a people) The seconds of your (You never wish was) Life just (On a people) Slow down, slow (You never wish was) Down, slow down (On a people) [All] (Clown MC) The seconds of your (You never wish was) Life just (On a people) Slow down, slow (You never wish was) Down, slow down (On a people) The seconds of your (You never wish was) Life just (On a people) Slow down, slow (You never wish was) Down, slow down (On a people) [Michael] The puzzle pieces swirl and snap to place My stomach eats itself I see my own face Am I? [Clown MC & Anna] Wait [Michael] Can I? [Clown MC & Anna] Wait [Michael] Has something already determined my fate? Time gives way Am I too late? [Clown MC] I am d**h personified You must be terrified Now you are verified Whoa let me clarify Time is ripped open Your mind has been chosen The lines have been drawn So fly to the dawn On and on gone while the dead sings her song [Anna] Come along [Clown MC & Anna] Now take two steps Take one breath Just accept Your own d**h Take two steps Take one breath Just accept Your own d**h [Clown MC] You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war on a people You never wish war -- people people people
