Fleetwood Mac Peacekeeper lyrics
https://youtu.be/2efQdJeHJDQ

Discussions have been ongoing for years trying to figure out this song. Here are a few comments:

(explanations found on line)
In another interview, he(the song writer) would say; "...It's about how we are becoming increasingly desensitized to things around the world that are brutal and not standing up for human value."

I’m surprised no one has seen the obvious, either at the time the song was released, or since. When Buckingham wrote this (2000), the “Peacekeeper” nuclear missile program created by Reagan and hated by Clinton was scheduled to be scrapped. When the song was released three years later, President Bush had finished gutting the project. The song is a homily; an attempt to comfort the poor, unused missile; ergo…

“We make all of our sons the same”
(The progeny of all nations are equally vulnerable,)
“Every one will suffer the fire we've made”

(Each and every individual will die,)
“They all explode just the same”
(Regardless of which side the combatants are on,)
“And there's no going back on the plans we've made”
(There is no way to recall a missile once launched.)

“Peacekeeper take your time”
(Don’t worry, your time will come.)
“Wait for the dark of night”
(You’ll be used when least expected.)
“Soon all the suns will rise”
(Thermonuclear explosions are small stars like the interior of our sun, about 100,000,000 degrees.)

…etcetera. Continue in this manner and the meaning will be unmistakable. “Love is the sweet surprise.” Not sure what that line means, but it’s bound to be something dark, and have nothing whatsoever to do with love.

My comment:
IMO love is the sweet surprise if you seek peace. Also, regardless what you are doing in this life, soldier or civilian, love is still the best part of life.

After reading the opinion of the song I felt that the person did not get the exact meaning in every case. But the gist of it was about wars, and that everyone will suffer from a nuclear war once it is unleashed. The term "peacekeeper" is the name of a missile type.

But the tone of the music is contrary to the message which makes it difficult to understand its true meaning. The music should have been less melodic and more charged with alarm and danger to get the point across. The lyrics are actually quite disturbing, negative and fatalistic. Because of that, IMO the music project was a complete failure for those lyrics.

(On an additional note, I wonder if the writer was part of the socialistic depopulation program of the globalists, and that the end result of killing off large numbers of people is actually what they're celebrating in the song. And, that killing off the masses is a form of "love for the planet". It makes a person wonder exactly what the writer had in mind.)

lyrics:
We make all of our suns the same
Every one will suffer the fire we've made
They all explode just the same
And there's no going back on the plans we've made

Peacekeeper, take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise
Peacekeeper, don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

Only creatures who are on their way
Ever poison their own well
But we still have time to hate
And there's still something we can sell

Peacekeeper, take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise
Peacekeeper, don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

When the night is cold and still
When you thought you'd had your fill
Take all the time you will
This is not a test, it's not a drill
Take no prisoners, only kill

You know all of our friends are Gods
And they all tell us how to paint our face
But there's only one brush we need
It's the one that never leaves a trace

Peacekeeper, take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise
Peacekeeper, don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

Peacekeeper, take your time
Wait for the dark of night
Soon all the suns will rise
Peacekeeper, don't tell why
Don't be afraid to fight
Love is the sweet surprise

When the night is cold and still
When you thought you'd had your fill
This is not a test, it's not a drill
Take no prisoners, only kill
