give me peace

Lyrics by Eric Yoder

I just discovered

The beauty in my world

I grew the garden then watched the leaves unfurl

But as I’ve grown

To feel this inspiration 

I see the signs

They’re gonna try and kill my world’s creations

Still after all this time

We’re plagued by hate and crime and it’s so sad

Well I wanna live my life

But I can see your eyes and the dreams you should’ve had

Give me peace

Imagine living life happily

Give me peace

I wanna rectify your dreams

I just discovered

The beauty in my life

Am I the only one who sees these sights

I look around me

And I get so lonely

Are you there

I don’t think anyone may seem to care

I still can’t wrap my mind

Why people have to fight and die just to make it through

Well how could you live a life

When others they got so much fight

What would you do

If it all came back to you

Give me peace

Imagine living life, living it happily

Give me peace

I wanna rectify your dreams

You know it’s not so much to ask

To just be happy with what you have

And I can see it in your face

You want to make a difference but you can’t find your place

You say your world don’t revolve around you

Oh oh you tell me it’s true

I hope you feel the words fall through

Oh oh but I’m not blaming you

Give me peace

Imagine living life, living it happily

Give me peace

I wanna rectify your dreams
