Derek Webb - My Enemies Are Men Like Me lyrics

rate me

(vs. 1) i have come to give you life and to show you how to live it i have come to make things right to heal their ears and show you how to forgive them (pre-chorus) because i would rather die i would rather die i would rather die than to take your life (chorus) how can i kill the ones i'm supposed to love my enemies are men like me i will protest the sword if it's not wielded well my enemies are men like me (vs. 2) peace by way of war is like purity by way of fornication it's like telling someone murder is wrong and then showing them by way of execution (pre-chorus) (chorus) (bridge) when justice is bought and sold just like weapons of war the ones who always pay are the poorest of the poor (chorus)
