Holy War
[Verse 1] (Joseph Williams):
Run, they say it's Armageddon
Hide, we're very near the end
Fear, the promise of a nation
That's getting harder to defend
Woah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus] (Joseph Williams + Steve Lukather):
Come in (come in)
Relax (relax)
There's no secrecy
Please take more than I have
I know (I know)
You are (you are)
Trying to scare me
I've got nothing to spare
Save all (save all) the shit about spreading freedom
Sounds like a scam to me
[Chorus] (All / Steve Lukather):
Holy war
Show me what you've been concealing
All in the name of peace and love
What are we fighting for?
I thought the point was healing
Clearly, I was dead wrong
[Verse 2] (Joseph Williams):
Truth, beyond your comprehension
Lies, above and far beyond
Have faith that every execution
Will be televised onto your phone
Oh, woah
[Pre-Chorus] (Joseph Williams + Steve Lukather):
Come in (come in)
Relax (relax)
There's no privacy
'Cause I am what I am
I know (I know)
You are (you are)
Trying to shock me
I don't easily scare
Save all (save all) the shit about spreading freedom
It's a shameless lie to me
[Chorus] (All / Steve Lukather):
Holy war
Show me what you've been concealing
All in the name of peace and love
What are we fighting for?
I thought the point was healing
Clearly, I was dead wrong
[Guitar Solo: Steve Lukather]
[Bridge] (All / Steve Lukather):
Holy war
Show me what you've been concealing
All in the name of peace and love
[Chorus] (All / Steve Lukather / Joseph Williams):
What are we fighting for?
I thought the point was healing
Clearly, I was dead wrong (I was dead wrong)
Holy war
Show me what you've been concealing
All in the name of peace and love
What are we fighting for? (Fighting your holy war)
I thought the point was healing
Clearly, I was dead wrong
