people i almost gave up holding on
watching us give into our fears
all the world is helpless sorrow
no hope for a bright tomorrow
now as i learn how i must work for change
i nearly cave in from the weight
all the sorrows will consume me
'til peace among men i never can see
but i'm not sure enough to give it up
like so many souls who won't be drowned
that we can guide our choices towards a healthy world
for only hard work through time
if we make some small changes now
i don't expect to ever taste the fruit
my life devoted could bring forth
oh the path to peace is endless
choosing to close our eyes makes our fault mendless
