I’m reaching for a Peace beyond all Pleasure and all Pain
I’m reaching for a Peace beyond the Ego
I’m reaching for a Peace beyond the Sacred and Profane
I’m reaching for a Peace beyond all We Know

The Animal looks out upon the World it’s twined
It twists and pulls and feels and reels
It irks and jerks and thrashes and lashes
It fears and tears and craves and enslaves

These are the actions of reactions
These are the lives of the untaken
These are the lies of the mistaken
These are the ills of the Wills a-breakin’
These are the Challenges that challenge the forsaken

A gap forms amidst the strengthened walls
A sheltered space where gentleness resides

The Gentleness looks out upon the World it Loves
It folds and holds and feels and reels
It staves and saves and sifts and lifts
It culls and lulls and lays and prays

A teardrop forms amidst the pain absorbed
Confusion in illusion, suffered in a spin
The Hand of God that whirls around
The space of place directing Sin
Confining light to spheres of Time
Confining thought to streams Devine

Inside the space, outside the place
Between the now, outside the how
I’ve said it all before, I’ll say it all again
We’ve gone around the circle, and here we go again
Again, again, again, again, again, again

Wake up and count tomorrow
Wake up and quell the sorrow
Hiding in control takes an enormous toll
No, No, No, No, No, No
No, No, No, No, No, No
Know, Know, Know, Know, Know, Know
Let’s Let Each Other Go
Just Let Each Other Go
Now Let Each Other Go

A treasured piece of Peace-spire
For every single cease-fire
A zillion Wars, a zillion Fronts
Inside of us, inside of Us
In spite of us, in spite of Us

Stop It All, Reset It All
Phantom Wall meet Wrecking Ball

I’m trying hard say
In a Diplomatic way:
Violence is the act of a frightened child,
Aggression is the act of the desperate Wild
Grow up People
Wake up People
Take up People

Power holds the reigns of a most unyielding Beast
If it steers it’s steered you first
And left you with unquenchable Thirst
It’s not a place of havens
But a prison built of cravens

Put down your gun
Put down your gun
We’ve already won
We’ve already won
We’re growing up together
We’re growing up together
