White Flag Warrior |
| Jonny 5: |
| We request to negotiate |
| We come to you unarmed |
| We desire to communicate |
| You cannot do us harm |
| Jonny 5: |
| They want sacrifice: they had schemes and asked me to follow their path to the afterlife |
| I’ve got an appetite for nice things and pipe dreams |
| that my enemies could be blasted by New metaphors view that are better for |
| you, can’t survive if I’m your competitor |
| Rise together or fight separate wars |
| I pray I’m never forced to be a predator |
| Brer Rabbit: |
| Spectres spectate, we won’t last |
| We glad to hate when gladiators breathe their last |
| Scream en masse when the dreams do clash |
| Like the swords in the wars, let me bleed on that |
| Let me feed on that, say we need strong backs |
| Call us weak if we don’t redeem contracts |
| But the feast wont last; |
| when the beast attacks |
| The sons and the fathers will be free at last |
| Tim McIlrath: |
| This is love; |
| it’s not treason |
| This is love; |
| it’s not treason |
| This is love; |
| it’s not treason |
| This is love; |
| it’s not treason |
| This is love |
| Jonny 5: |
| They see sharks in the estuary |
| They claim the ark is Bartholemew’s |
| They say «War is necessary» |
| But we say, «War is child abuse» |
| Tim McIlrath/Jonny 5: |
| We’d rather make our children (We request to negotiate) |
| Martyrs than murderers (We come to you unarmed) |
| We’d rather make our children (We desire to communicate) |
| White Flag Warriors |
| Brer Rabbit: |
| Take to the core we’re the one’s we’ve been waiting for |
| We hold steady, steady on the step of door |
| The type of you are matadors and matadors are capable |
| Forgive the death and settle scores and test the metal and the ore |
| What’s your plan go to do with me? |
| If the bell tolls us let freedom ring |
| And find the new ways that we must be king |
| Instead of leading the young to our suffering |
| Jonny 5: |
| We pass testaments down scream back at heaven |
| For testing us like Wednesdays at eleven |
| Wanna recruit and train us to act evilly? |
| Save it for the shooting range and smack DVDs |
| Won’t study war no more this millennium |
| It’s never again to me or anyone |
| So think harder when you refer to us Rather make our children martyrs than murderers |
| Tim McIlrath: |
| This is love; |
| this is not treason |
| This is love; |
| this is not treason |
| This is love; |
| this is not treason |
| This is love; |
| this is not treason |
| This is love |
| Jonny 5: |
| They shell dwellings to quell the shelling |
| They lift taboos to seduce the cowards |
| They say we’re too yellow-bellied |
| But we say we’re the new superpower |
| Tim McIlrath/Jonny 5: |
| We’d rather make our children (We request to negotiate) |
| Martyrs than murderers (We come to you unarmed) |
| We’d rather make our children (We desire to communicate) |
| White Flag Warriors (You cannot do us harm) |
| Jonny 5: |
| We seek waivers to not be liable |
| We claim to speak for a higher truth |
| We stand opposed to the homicidal |
| We tell you you’re fireproof |
| Tim McIlrath/Jonny 5: |
| We’d rather make our children (We request to negotiate) |
| Martyrs than murderers (We come to you unarmed) |
| We’d rather make our children (We desire to communicate) |
| White Flag Warriors |
| Jonny 5: |
| Give to us your courage |
| Ask us what you will |
| Demand from us a sacrifice, |
| But do not make us kill |
