"Love And Peace Or Else" Lyrics U2

The lyrics to Love and Peace or Else are fairly easily to get meaning from at face value, it's a note on the struggles and wars in the world. Most likley those in the Middle East. It's a message firmly in tune with Bono's 'Coexist' appeal.

Bono is searching for peace in war torn countries and prays to the people to put down their weapons. He prays that people should live their entire life and live it peacefully.

Regardless of its noble intent, Love and Peace features a killer solo from The Edge!

The song has a kind of 'reverse anger' to it that reminds me of the intent of the lyrics of Bullet the Blue Sky.

Love and Peace or Else Lyrics:

Bow down

Lay down
Lay down
Lay your sweet lovely on the ground
Lay your love on the track
We're gonna break the monster's back

Lay down your treasure
Lay it down now brother
You don't have time
For a jealous lover
As you enter this life
I pray you depart
With a wrinkled face
And a brand new heart

I don't know if I can take it
I'm not easy on my knees
Here's my heart, I'll let you break it
We need some release, release, release
We need love and peace
Love and peace

Lay down
Lay down your guns
All you daughters of Zion
All you Abraham sons

I don't know if I can make it
I'm not easy on my knees
Here's my heart, I'll let you break it
I need some release, release, release
We need love and peace
Love and peace

Baby don't fight
We can talk this thing through
Between me and you
I'll call or you'll phone
The TV is still on
But the sound is turned down
And the troops on the ground
Are about to dig in
And I wonder where is the love
Where is the love
Where is the love
Love and peace

Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
