Eye for an eye Lyrics

My eyes have done their share of dryin'
My mind's been preoccupied
My life's like a blackbird flyin' from a resting place on a wire
My ears sting deaf from deception

My hands shake cold from numb
My back breaks from old friends rejections
Where judgments and grudges are hung

[Chorus:]
But I'm not gonna hate
Even if I ache inside
I'm not gonna hurt someone
Even if I'm justified
I'm not gonna lie
Even if I've been deceived
An eye for an eye
Is not the life I choose to lead

I'm calling all lost souls and sinners
Adhere to the saints of men
Like Martin or Gandhi or Jesus
We should all learn to forgiveVaughan Penn - Eye for an eye - http://motolyrics.com/vaughan-penn/eye-for-an-eye-lyrics.html
Has the cost of freedom been forgotten
Has the price of peace been banned
I believe love lives somewhere inside the brotherhood of man

[Chorus:]
But I'm not gonna hate
Even if I ache inside
I'm not gonna hurt someone
Even if I'm justified
I'm not gonna lie
Even if I've been deceived
An eye for an eye
Is not the life I choose to lead

[Chorus:]
But I'm not gonna hate
Even if I ache inside
I'm not gonna hurt someone
Even if I'm justified
I'm not gonna lie
Even if I've been deceived
An eye for an eye
Is not the life I choose to lead
