theCURE
Written and composed by HAYDEN RICHARDS

VERSE 1:
I often wonder
If we know what we're doing
When we load our rifles,
Do we know what we're doing?
Now blood soaks the ground,
Where are we now?
Will you restore freedom when you detonate it?
Or should we consider the lives we decimated?
You could drop bombs from a thousand miles
Now imagine if you could disarm your missiles?

CHORUS:
They'll tell you,
That you're going off to fight for peace
And they'll tell you
To ignore the bloodshed and crush your enemies, oh
Did they tell you,
'Bout the billions made from hate and war?
Let me ask you this...
Is love the cure?

VERSE 2:
You won the mission
But at what cost?
A little girl buried in rubble
Hopes and dreams lost
We'll never know her name
Was her life in vain?
You reap your profits from every rocket fired
(Nations on fire)
The innocent be damned as long as there's a buyer
We should stand up for more than greed
Now imagine if just a little love is all we need?

CHORUS:
They'll tell you,
That you're going off to fight for peace
And they'll tell you
To ignore the bloodshed and crush your enemies, oh
Did they tell you,
'Bout the billions made from hate and war?
Let me ask you this...
Is love the cure?

CHORUS #2:
They'll tell you,
There's no higher honour, protect your country
(Like a good soldier)
That the innocent lives you ended were necessary, oh
Let me tell you,
'Bout the billions dead from mindless war
Let me ask you this...
Is love the cure?
