Peace On Earth

Heaven on Earth, we need it now <br>I`m sick of all of this hanging around <br>Sick of sorrow, sick of the pain <br>I`m sick of hearing again and again <br>That there`s gonna be peace on Earth <br><br>Where I grew up<br>There weren`t many trees <br>Where there was, we`d tear them down <br>And use them on our enemies <br><br>They say that what you mock <br>Will surely overtake you <br>And you become a monster <br>So the monster will not break you <br><br>And it`s already gone too far <br>Who said that if you go in hard, you won`t get hurt? <br>Jesus, can you take the time <br>To throw a drowning man a line? <br>Peace on Earth <br><br>Tell the ones who hear no sound <br>Whose sons are living in the ground <br>Peace on Earth <br>No whos or whys <br>No one cries, like a mother cries <br>For peace on Earth <br>She never got to say goodbye <br>To see the colour in his eyes <br>Now he`s in the dirt <br>Peace on Earth <br><br>They`re reading names out over the radio <br>All the folks, the rest of us won`t get to know <br>Sean and Julia, Garreth, Ann and Breda <br>Their lives are bigger than any big idea <br><br>Jesus, can you take the time <br>To throw a drowning man a line? <br>Peace on Earth <br>To tell the ones who hear no sound <br>Whose sons are living in the ground <br>Peace on Earth <br><br>Jesus, sing the song you wrote <br>The words are sticking in my throat <br>Peace on Earth <br>Hear it every Christmas time <br>But hope and history won`t rhyme <br>So, what`s it worth? <br>This peace on Earth<br><br>Peace on Earth<br>Peace on Earth<br>Peace on Earth
