Deadman - Malice Toward None lyrics

Well, I have been thinking for way too long About how to deal with offence How Abraham Lincoln wrote with his pen And made all the confusion make sense And brought all the soldiers to tears And still a nation's great fears Malice toward none Malice toward none Help us to live with malice toward none Malice toward none Malice toward none Help us to live with malice toward none Now in tense situations I find myself And some days for vengeance I yearn And Lex Talionis sounds like a good plan Until it becomes my turn 'Cause I don't like the taste in my mouth And I don't like my ways to head south Malice toward none Malice toward none Teach me to live with malice toward none Malice toward none Malice toward none Teach me to live with malice toward none Between a rock and a hard place I find myself wedged And it looks like I'll get no relief When I'm battered and bruised by the people I trust And I can't seem to hold on to peace But I can't seem to hold to the phrase And it gets me through the darkest of days Malice toward none Malice toward none Teach us to live with malice toward none Malice toward none Malice toward none Teach us to live with malice toward none
