Lyrics ~ Breathe The Acoustic Sessions version



When both sides are right
And no one will admit to wrong
And they stand and face each other
To the death like fighting cocks
All reason stays lost
Buried in our history’s fog
Our innocence gunned down
In the street like a pistol shot

And everybody’s talking
Saying nothing much
All angry men who concede no ground
And give nothing up
As the green shoots of hope
Are trampled into the mud
And blindly we run
Head on into the great cut up

Tell me who, who, who’s gonna make the peace?
Me or you, who, who’s gonna make the peace
Ah, tell me who, who’s gonna make the peace?
Who’s gonna make the first move?
Who, who’s gonna make the peace?

As the politicians bleat and bray
On the right side of wrong
While their brown tongues extend
From Whitehall to Washington
And the sexual revolution
Puts the church to bed
With a gay priest who prays aloud
while the last rites are read

Tell me who, who, who’s gonna make the peace?
Me or you, who, who’s gonna make the peace
Ah, tell me who, who’s gonna make the peace?
Who’s gonna make the first move?
Who, who’s gonna make the peace?

Who’s gonna make the peace?
Me or you
Who’s gonna make the peace?
Who’s gonna make the first move?
Who’s gonna make the peace?
Tell me who?
Tell me who?
Who’s gonna make the peace?
Who’s gonna?
Who’s gonna?
Who’s gonna?
Who’s gonna make the peace now?
Who’s gonna make the peace?
Who’s gonna make the peace?
Who’s gonna make the peace?
