In this world, this broken world
Misleaders beat their drums of war
Speak of right in black and white
And evil at the door..
The lessons show there's more to know
And these wars are never really won
You cannot kill the world until
Your enemies are none..
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of an urgent peace
Oh my world, hold on..
Revenge is sweet when all they see
Is blood and ruins on the ground
No incentive for the men
To lay their weapons down.
Peace by force denies the source
For only peace protects a home
Someone has to be the last
To grieve one of their own.
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a desperate peace
Oh, my world, hold on
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a fragile peace
Oh, my world, hold on, hold on..
Every race has got to face
Their hatred -and the lies it tells
And when we claim we're free from blame
We're lying to ourselves
It's not weak for us to seek
The reasons underneath the hate
Understand why man is damned
To the hell that he creates..
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a hopeful peace
Oh my world, hold on, hold on..
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a lasting peace
Oh, my world, hold on, hold on
Hold on
Oh, my world, hold on..
Misleaders beat their drums of war
Speak of right in black and white
And evil at the door..
The lessons show there's more to know
And these wars are never really won
You cannot kill the world until
Your enemies are none..
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of an urgent peace
Oh my world, hold on..
Revenge is sweet when all they see
Is blood and ruins on the ground
No incentive for the men
To lay their weapons down.
Peace by force denies the source
For only peace protects a home
Someone has to be the last
To grieve one of their own.
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a desperate peace
Oh, my world, hold on
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a fragile peace
Oh, my world, hold on, hold on..
Every race has got to face
Their hatred -and the lies it tells
And when we claim we're free from blame
We're lying to ourselves
It's not weak for us to seek
The reasons underneath the hate
Understand why man is damned
To the hell that he creates..
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a hopeful peace
Oh my world, hold on, hold on..
Peace by peace, peace by peace
Pieces of a lasting peace
Oh, my world, hold on, hold on
Hold on
Oh, my world, hold on..
