There is no hope There is no future No faith in god to save the day There is no reason No understanding No sacred place to hide away There is no honest conversation No words of wisdom from the wise There is no reconsiliation And no collective compromise Peace on earth That's what we want Peace on earth That's what we all say Peace on earth yet There in the hallway Lurks The ghost of war There is no darkness no sunshine There is no great society There is no freedom without conviction There is no freedom to be freee There is no heaven no fire and brimstone There is no brotherhood of man There is no country, no one religion There is no universal plan Peace on earth That's what we want Peace on earth That's what we all say Peace on earth yet There in the hallway Lurks The ghost of war He wants more and more and more and more And more and more and MORE The answer is mutually a**ure destruction A balance of power, weapon for everyone Mutually a**ure destruction Bringing peace to everyone Peace on earth That's what we want Peace on earth That's what we all say Peace on earth yet There in the hallway Lurks Peace on earth Peace on earth
