            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 We request to negotiate 
We come to you unarmed 
We desire to communicate 
You cannot do us harm 
For one sacrifice, 
They have schemes and ask me to follow their path to the afterlife 
I've got an appetite 
For nice things and the 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 
Ooh fight separate wars I pray I'm never forced to be a predator 
Suspecting 
We won't last 
They're glad to hate 
When gladiators 
Breathe their last 
Scream en masse 
When the dreams do clash 
Like swords in the war 
Let me bleed on that 
Put the heat on that 
Say we need strong backs 
Call us weak 
And don't redeem contracts 
But the feast wont last 
When this 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 
They see sharks in the estuary 
They claim the arch of bartholomew's 
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 (you cannot do us harm) 
Core-to-core 
They're the one's we've been waiting for 
We hold steady, 
Steadier than stevedores 
...doesn't matter of what came before 
Forgive the debts 
And settle scores 
And test the mettle 
Either ore 
What's your plan go 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 
We pass testaments down scream back at heaven 
For testing us like wednesday's at 11 
Want to recruit and train us to act evilly 
Save it for the shooting range 
And smack dvds 
So study war 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, and not treason 
This is love, and not treason 
This is love, and not treason 
This is love, and not treason 
They shell dwellings to quell the shellings 
And lift taboos to seduce the cowards 
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) 
We seek ways to not be liable 
We claim to speak for a higher truth 
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 to our courage 
Ask us what you will 
Demand from us a sacrifice 
But do not make us kill
