There are villains in high places
There are villains in the dirt
There are heroes in the silence
There is wisdom where you hurt

I took a drag and made it beauty
I took a beauty and made her beg
When I pushed too hard I relented
And I said that I was only pulling your leg

'Cause I want peace
Yeah, I want peace
For you
And for me
For you and me

I wouldn't say that I'm a pacifist
I wouldn't say I'm going rogue
But this soap star's the worst kind of weapon
Throwing bombs like they were ropes

You know the facts are being murdered
By the din of politics
And in the ways that we avoid each other
While the big clock ticks

There's a violence in doing nothing
As if the plot could be ignored
Just because you've picked your poison
Doesn't mean the wolf's not at your door

I get no thrill from bringing bad news
I'd much rather make you smile
But I refuse to be a passenger
As we smile, and swallow up the miles

'Cause I want peace
Yeah, I want peace
'Cause I want peace
Yeah, I want peace
For you
And for me
For you and me
