"Ready For War" lyrics

"Ready For War"

She wept when they crept in
The night outside my home
The silence after twilight it
It chilled me to the bone

Seems like it's all a bad dream
When the enemy's at your door

I pray for peace
But I'm ready for war
I pray for peace
But I'm ready for war, ready for war

The paths chosen in a moment
Just a blinking of an eye
You hear click clack, can't forget that
It's their life or it's mine

Hear the battle cries in the darkness
Still I'm walking straight through that door

I pray for peace
But I'm ready for war
I pray for peace
But I'm ready for war, ready for war

Oh Lord set me free
'Cause I ain't gonna wait no more
I pray for peace
But I'm ready for war, ready for war
