Hope For Our Peace

[2003]
How did I get here under this cloud?
Who holds the answers, if answers be found?
I was safe; I was happy, right where I was
Could it be that it's all just because?

What did I do, to get this tear in my eye?
The one in the middle rarely knows why
Is there something about me that I just don't see?
Roads less traveled, are they meant to be?

What is the price? What be the cost?
What is the measure when we've won when we've lost?
Will our battles rage forward, never to cease?
Will our eyes slowly empty of hope for our peace?

Time upon time, we're put to the test
In a world of confusion we give it our best
Is it true that we reap whatever we sow?
Look to the sky but the sky doesn't know

What is the price? What be the cost?
What is the measure when we've won when we've lost?
Will our battles rage forward, never to cease?
Will our eyes slowly empty of hope for our peace?

Vishnu be gentle, Allah be wise
God give us strength to stay open our eyes
Will the one without sin cast the first stone?
Will the one without hatred lead us on?

How did I get here under this cloud?
Who holds the answers, if answers be found?
I was safe; I was happy, right where I was
Could it be that it's all just because?
