Let's talk of peace,
Sounds so cliche A novelty, catch phrase of the day Middle, index, Sign of the time Just as complex, As water to... Someone said give peace a chance And, that's all that we're saying While we're sitting on the fence Pretending, Our hearts are in the right place But, your face Shows a trace of, Hypocrisy, Don't tread on me, Now you can see MAKE LOVE NOT WAR, SOUNDS SO ABSURD, TO ME WE CAN'T AFFORD TO SAY THESE WORDS, LIGHTLY OR ELSE OUR WORLD, WILL TRULY, REST IN PEACE Let's not pretend, to justify Rather amend, Where treasures lie Straight through the heart, Peace can be found That's where you start, Not all around Someone said give peace a chance And, that's all that we're saying While we're sitting on the fence Pretending, Our hearts are in the right place But, your face Shows a trace of, Hypocrisy, Don't tread on me, boy Now you can see |

Saying I love you is not the words
I want to hear from you It's not that I want you not to say but if you only knew how easy it It would be to show me how you feel More than words is all you have to do to make it real then you wouldn't have to say that you love me coz I'd aready know What would you do if my heart was torn in two more than words show you feel that your love for me is real What would you say if I took those words away then you couldn't make things new just by saying I love you more than words Now that I've try to talk to you and make you understand All you have to do is close your eyes and just reach out your hand and touch me hold me close don't ever let me go More than words is all I ever needed you to show then you wouldn't have to say that you love me coz I'd already know What would you do if my heart was torn in two more than words show you feel that your love for me is real What would you say if I took those words away then you couldn't make things new just by saying I love you more than words more than words more than words more than words more than words |

I read the news today oh boy,
About a tragic comedy Newspaper hinted suicide, The letterhead read Dear Johnny A tainted truth was all it said, Sleep tight now that You've made your bed An arrow that once pierced your heart Points to the apple on your head Three sides to every story Yours, mine And, Monday morning's CUPID'S DEAD, HEADLINES READ, CUPID'S DEAD CUPID'S DEAD, HEADLINES READ, CUPID'S DEAD Oh, Romeo, Oh, Romeo Where did our love go, Romeo? If you read between the headlines, You wouldn't be the last to know No mystery yet to unfold, A paperboy left in the cold A love was said to never die, Withered away and just got old "Our top story tonight, is a crime of passion The victim, an unidentified man, is found in bed, wearing only a diaper, holding a bow an arrow in one hand, and clutching a letter in the other. The letter simply read ... CUPID'S DEAD." Extra, extra, extra, read all about it CUPID'S DEAD, Cupid is dead, deceased, I got peace of mind Still it's hard to forget, what it leaves behind A lot of love lost, your feelings are wasted, tasted the sweetness, but now you're faced with, the thought, of being alone Nor more companionship, you can handle it, just abandon it, leave it behind, and look for the brighter day Give it some time, cause it won't come right away You gotta be standing strong, hold on to your dignity Don't sit around, saying look what ya did to me It's time to move on, you gotta continue to look for a love, of a life that's within you Cupid is dead now, it's time to rely on, yourself to cope You got no shoulder to cry on DEAD |

Life's ambition occupies my time
Priorities confuse the mind Happiness one step behind This inner peace I've yet to find Rivers flow into the sea Yet even the sea is not so full of me If I'm not blind why can't I see That a circle can't fit Where a square should be There's a hole in my heart That can only be filled by you And this hole in my heart Can't be filled with the things I do Hole hearted Hole hearted This heart of stone is where I hide These feet of clay kept warm inside Day by day less satisfied Not fade away before I die Rivers flow into the sea Yet even the sea is not so full of me If I'm not blind why can't I see That a circle can't fit Where a square should be There's a hole in my heart That can only be filled by you And this hole in my heart Can't be filled with the things I do There's a hole in my heart That can only be filled by you Should have known from the start I'd fall short with the things I do Hole hearted Hole hearted Hole hearted Hole hearted |

I'm tired of being me,
and I don't like what I see, I'm not who I appear to be So I start off every day, down on my knees I will pray, for a change in any way But as the day goes by, I live through another lie, if it's any wonder why AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE WILL I ALWAYS STAY THE SAME IF I SAY ONE THING, THEN I DO THE OTHER IT'S THE SAME OLD SONG, THAT GOES ON FOREVER AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE I'M THE ONLY ONE TO BLAME WHEN I THINK I'M RIGHT, I WIND UP WRONG IT'S A FUTILE FIGHT, GONE ON TOO LONG Please tell me if it's true, am I too old to start anew, cause that's what I want to do But time and time again, when I think I can, I fall short in the end So why do I even try, Will it matter when I die, Can anyone hear my cry? AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE TAKE IT DAY BY DAY MY WILL IS WEAK AND MY FLESH TOO STRONG THIS PEACE I SEEK TILL THY KINGDOM COMES |
