White Flag Warrior

We request to negotiate
 We come to you unarmed
 We desire to communicate
 You cannot do us harm
 For one 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
 Ooh, metaphors, views that are better for
 You can't survive or find your competitor
 Rise together or fight separate wars
 I pray I'm never forced to be a predator
 Suspecting we won't last
 They're glad to hate but gladiators breed their last
 Scream or mash for their dreams do clash
 Like swords in the war, let me bleed on that
 Put the heat on that, 'cept we need strong backs
 Call us weak and don't redeem contracts
 Well, this speech won't last if the beast attacks
 The sons and the fathers will be free at last
 This is love and not treason
 This is love and not treason
 This is love and not treason
 This is love and not treason
 (This is love and not treason)
 They see sharks in the estuary
 They claim the Arch of Bartholomew's
 (This is love and not treason)
 They say war is necessary
 But we say war is child abuse
 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
 Take to the core they're the ones 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, test the metal and the ore
 What's your plan got to do with me?
 If the bell tolls, let freedom ring
 And find the new ways that we must be king
 Instead of leading the young to our suffering
 The past test of this now scream back in heaven
 For testing us like Wednesdays at eleven
 Want to recruit and train us to act evilly
 Save it for the shooting range, so back DVD
 Just tell me, want no more this millennium
 It's never again for me or anyone
 So think harder when you refer to us
 Rather make our children martyrs than murders
 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, this is not treason)
 They shell dwellings to quell the shellings
 And lift taboos and seduce the countings
 (This is love, this is not treason)
 They say we're too yellow bellied
 But we say we're the new superpower
 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)
 (This is love, this is not treason)
 We seek ways to not be liable
 We claim to speak for a higher truth
 (This is love, this is not treason)
 We stand opposed to the homicidal
 We tell you, you are fire proof
 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
 We'd rather make our children
 We'd rather make our children
 (Do what you want your courage)
 We'd rather make our children
 (Ask us what you will)
 (Demand from us a sacrifice)
 We'd rather make our children
 (But do not make us kill)
