Ceasefire

its my turn, 

its your turn

everyone 

is on the run



 "am the don".....

"am next to none"

 the sun long gone...

the fun is hung


 houses - they burn

families - they mourn

curfews - dusk till dawn,

 gloomy on the "morn"


 less ado 'bout the battles we've won

 and the war cloths we've worn

 let bygones be bygones

 we really don't have to buy guns
