Extreme - Rest in Peace Lyrics

Artist: Extreme

Album: III Sides To Every Story

  • Songwriters: Nuno Bettencourt, Gary Cherone, Jimi Hendrix

Let's talk of peace, sounds so cliche
A novelty, catch phrase of the day
Middle, index, sign of the time
Just as complex, as water to

Someone said give peace a chance
And, that's all that we're saying
While we're sitting on the fence
Pretending, our hearts are in the right place
But, your face shows a trace of

Hypocrisy, don't tread on me
Now you can see

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me
We can't afford to say these words lightly
Or else our world, will truly
Rest in peace

Let's not pretend, to justify
Rather amend, where treasures lie
Straight through the heart, peace can be found
That's where you start, not all around

Someone said give peace a chance
And, that's all that we're saying
While we're sitting on the fence
Pretending, our hearts are in the right place
But, your face shows a trace of

Hypocrisy, don't tread on me, boy
Now you can see

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me
We can't afford to say these words lightly
Or else our world, will truly
Rest in peace

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me
We can't afford to say these words lightly
Or else our world, will truly
Rest in peace

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me
We can't afford to say these words lightly
Or else our world, will truly
Rest in peace

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me

Make love not war, sounds so absurd to me
We can't afford to say these words, lightly
Or else our world, will truly
Rest in peace
