From the recording River Light

Lyrics

You try to fill us with fear
And words of hate are all we hear
The day of violence and confusion is near
When you fill us with fear

Take a look in their eyes
No more tears left to cry
Who’s to say who will live and who will die
When you look in their eyes

No I won’t shoot your gun
Don’t tell me to kill anyone
A time of peaceful resolution has begun
So I won’t shoot your gun

Hey mister war machine director
I am a conscientious objector
Stop coming round here with your war fund collector
Hey mister war machine director

So you locked me away
You didn’t like what I had to say
Try to keep me silent for the rest of my days
So you locked me away

Be all you can be with the conscientious objectors
The few, the proud, the conscientious objectors
Aim high with the conscientious objectors
Get an edge on life with the conscientious objectors
