The Peace I Pray for
Opening the door
I discover so much more
The tears that fall...
The blood that splatters on the ground
There's never a wall
Between you and the next bound
The gun shots
The bullets
The corpse rots
Hiding in pits
The skies are always clouding
We're waiting for the sun to come out from hiding...
I pray
For the wars to come to an end
At that day
Family to meet again
It's all wars!
Slamming doors!
Where is the peace I'm praying for?
Why do we have to fight?
Why can't we get things right?
Why do we have arguing?
Why do we have to keep suing?
Why are we all living in the dark?
Close the line!
We have to make a spark
Bring out the sunshine
And make a fire!!!
It's the peace I pray for
I'm watching the news
I'm suddenly in my own blues
Because I see people clinging to the thread of life
Before it got cut with a knife
It's so sad to see the children!!!
Why are we committing this sin?
Why don't we shake hands?
Stop the lessening amount of thread strands
And how people keep holding on...
But then their eyes close and they see a new dawn!
The gun shots
The bullets
The corpse rots
Hiding in pits
The skies are always clouding
We're waiting for the sun to come out from hiding...
I pray
For the wars to come to an end
At that day
Family to meet again
It's all wars!
Slamming doors!
Where is the peace I'm praying for?
Why do we have to fight?
Why can't we get things right?
Why do we have arguing?
Why do we have to keep suing?
Why are we all living in the dark?
Close the line!
We have to make a spark
Bring out the sunshine
And make a fire!!!
It's the peace I pray for
Why don't we all raise a white flag?
Why are we always in a zigzag?
I'm tiiired of this
No one was hiiired to see the ending bliss...
Why don't we all just listen?
Don't continue this diss'in
I pray
For the wars to come to an end
At that day
Family to meet again
It's all wars!
Slamming doors!
Where is the peace I'm praying for?
Why do we have to fight?
Why can't we get things right?
Why do we have arguing?
Why do we have to keep suing?
Why are we all living in the dark?
Close the line!
We have to make a spark
Bring out the sunshine
And make a fire!!!
It's the peace I pray for
The peace I pray for
The peace...
I... Pray...
for....
