Lyrics Fall Of The Peacemakers - Molly Hatchet

Fall Of The Peacemakers

A king without a sword
A land without a king
The truth without a voice
One song left to sing
One song to sing
A wise man told me there’s something you should know
«The way you judge a man as you look into his soul
And you’ll soon see everything»
A voice from the past cried «Give Peace A Chance»
He paid our price now he’s free at last
And «Imagine» we called him a dreamer
How many times must good men die?
How many tears will the children cry?
Till we suffer no more sadness
Stop the madness
Oh stop the madness
If ashes are ashes and dust is dust
And our journey’s end and then we turn we must
To the sands of the shore
White doves then fly
Peace to all
Tell me why the peacemakers fall
Must we bury anymore
A hush in the crowd as the horse rode by
Black lace veil hid the tears from her eyes
And we all wept in silence
