Exclamation Are we NUTS!!???

We haven't even DISCUSSED Peacekeeper's lyrics in a LONG, DRAWN OUT THREAD!! LOL So, let's do it!!

Here are the lyrics:

We make all of our suns (or heck, is it SONS?) the same
Every one will suffer the fire we've made
They all explode just the same
And there's no going back on the plans we've made

Peacekeeper take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise

Peacekeeper don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

Only creatures who are on their way
Ever poison their own well
But we still have time to hate
And there's still something we can sell <---Trippin on THAT!!

Peacekeeper take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise

Peacekeeper don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

When the night is cold and still
When you thought you'd had your fill
Take all the time you will
This is not a test, it's not a drill
Take no prisoners, only kill

You know all of our friends are gods
And they all tell us how to paint our face
But there's only one brush we need
It's the one that never leaves a trace

Peacekeeper take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise

Peacekeeper don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

Peacekeeper take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise

Peacekeeper don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

When the night is cold and still
When you thought you've had your fill
This is not a test, it's not a drill
Take no prisoners, only kill

I FRICKIN LOVE THIS SONG!!!! I have been singing it at work!! It is so flippin catchy!! Now, the lyrics... I have NO CLUE what he is trying to say...is this about war or is it an analogy for something else?

Here's my take on one stanza (cuz it's late and I need sleep and I wanna hear ya'll's thoughts on this AWESOME song!!):

Only creatures who are on their way
Ever poison their own well
But we still have time to hate
And there's still something we can sell


Okee, when people in the armed forces are at war, and they have been at a certain spot for awhile, and then, they leave NEVER to return, they must sabotage where they have been, right? They don't leave their water behind, unless they poison it for when the enemy comes, if they do. It's that last line that is KILLING ME!!! In regards to what we've been through the past month or so with the fan club, the new info on buying the songs, etc...it just FREAKS me the heck out!! LOL

Okay, I'm going to bed now...night ya'll and DISCUSS!!! LOL
