Peace On Earth

Well goodbye my friend

It was good to know you

I hope you understand

Twenty-one years and I ain't got nothing

But sitting wondering if I can

Wishing and dreaming Hoping and reaching

For things I was never meant to have

If my foolish life's a product of

My gross misconceptions

Who's gonna give a damn

I don't want

Peace on earth

I just want to go

I just want to go home

I know I never was much

More than you expected

I expect I won't disappoint

But my dreams were not as hollow

As the empty world I saw though

I guess I never did get the point

Life cannot just be the only option left

The only thing you can count

On in this world in regret

I don't want

Peace on earth

I just want to go

I just want to go home

Right world wrong time

And they say to me "Hang cool teddy bear"

Best thing to do

We'll just feed them fear

Get them thinking about there

And forgetting about here

We won't try to fight

We won't try to win

When they knock you down

You gotta get back up again

I don't wanna be an end

For someone else's dirty hand

To rape the desert of it's sand

And pluck the fertile virgin land

I don't wanna be

But I'm not so

Self-righteous to think that I

Would not take one hundred thousand lives

To see my mother's eyes

And trace that southern smile

I don't wanna die

I don't wanna die

I don't want too much

More than a working man deserves

Just a life worth living and

A death worth dying for

I don't want

Peace on earth

I don't want

Peace on earth

I don't want

Peace on earth

And I so want

Peace on earth

I just want to go home

I just want to go home

I just want to go home

I just want to go home

I just want to go home

I don't want

Peace on earth
