We make all of our suns the same Every one will suffer the fire we've made They all explode just the same And there's no going back on the plans we've made Peacekeeper, take your time Wait for the dark of night Soon all the suns will rise Peacekeeper, don't tell why Don't be afraid to fight Love is the sweet surprise Only creatures who are on their way Ever poison their own well But we still have time to hate And there's still something we can sell Peacekeeper, take your time Wait for the dark of night Soon all the suns will rise Peacekeeper, don't tell why Don't be afraid to fight Love is the sweet surprise When the night is cold and still When you thought you'd had your fill Take all the time you will This is not a test, it's not a drill Take no prisoners, only kill You know all of our friends are Gods And they all tell us how to paint our face But there's only one brush we need It's the one that never leaves a trace Peacekeeper, take your time Wait for the dark of night Soon all the suns will rise Peacekeeper, don't tell why Don't be afraid to fight Love is the sweet surprise Peacekeeper, take your time Wait for the dark of night Soon all the suns will rise Peacekeeper, don't tell why Don't be afraid to fight Love is the sweet surprise When the night is cold and still When you thought you'd had your fill This is not a test, it's not a drill Take no prisoners, only kill
