War as Peace   Year: 2008 | Run Time: 3:31

Written by Bill Mallonee for CyBrenJoJosh (BMI)

war as peace now there's your gift
it's hard to look at such twisted logic
targets yoy can't find or define
questionable aims in the face of the crime

do the misty eyes of patriots
slay you every time
it's pearls before swine

i remember when i was young
smell of death and the television
body bag count so wide and deep
win or lose the new ledger sheet

saw your flag and i heard your charm
scratched my head you threw up arms
the rate of attrition versus the bottom line
it's pearls before swine

time is all there really is
time all laced with sorrow
time you old farewell kiss
time well it's all borrowed

i've got something big and beautiful
mostly in the dark
but still you get transmissions deep
deep inside your heart

your laser-guided rhetoric
is working overtime
your trigger finger's itching
too much all the time

the charity is starving
???
well it's all pearls before swine

Appeared On…
