For No One
Harmony Amidst Chaos: Embracing Unity and Peace
Lyrics
Please lay down your pistols and your rifles
Advocating for peace by urging the abandonment of weapons.
Please lay down your colours and your creeds
Encouraging letting go of divisive symbols and beliefs.
Please lay down your thoughts of being no-one
Suggesting to relinquish feelings of insignificance or worthlessness.
Concentrate on what you ought to be
Focus on realizing one's true potential or purpose.
Then lay down your bullshit and your protests
Discarding falsehoods and meaningless protests.
Then lay down your governments of greed
Rejecting corrupt or self-serving governing systems.
Take a look at what lies all around you
Urging reflection on the reality surrounding us.
Then pray God we can live in peace
Expressing hope for a peaceful existence.
Everyone's a loner 'till he needs a helping hand
Highlighting individual isolation until assistance is required.
Everyone is everybody else
Indicating interconnectedness among people.
Everyone's a no-one 'till he wants to make a stand
Emphasizing unrecognized potential until a decision to take a stand is made.
God alone knows how we will survive
Expressing uncertainty about survival in current circumstances.
So please lay down your pistols and your rifles
Reiterating the call for disarmament and peace.
Please lay down your colours and your creeds
Re-emphasizing the need to let go of divisive symbols and beliefs.
Please lay down your thoughts of being no-one
Encouraging the release of feelings of insignificance or worthlessness.
Concentrate on what you ought to be
Reiterating the importance of focusing on one's true potential or purpose.
Everyone's a loner 'till he needs a helping hand
Repeating the theme of individual isolation until needing help.
Everyone is everybody else
Reiterating the interconnectedness of humanity.
Everyone's a no-one 'till he wants to make a stand
Re-emphasizing unrecognized potential until a decision to take a stand is made.
God alone knows how we will survive
Expressing uncertainty about survival, leaving it to a higher power.
