Peace Lyrics - Chalee Tennison

I heard about these kids walkin' on a train track 

Forty tons of steel bearing down on them 

And they just turned their backs 

Channel five, asked the one who survived 

'Son, why'd you do such a thing? 

No reply but his eyes cried 

Peace, I just need some peace 

If I have to I'll do anything 

Don't need your love or your sympathy 

But I cannot go on living without peace 

I know a man who sits and stares 

At a kitchen cabinet door 

That hides a whiskey bottle 

He hasn't touched since 

Well, this is day four 

He told his wife this time he'd try 

As she was just about to leave 

No reply, but her eyes cried 

Peace, I just need some peace 

If I have to I'll do anything 

Don't need your love or your sympathy 

But I cannot go on living without peace 

I have a friend who's looking for God 

A few good self-help books is as far as she's gotten 

Say a prayer tonight for that desperate child 

Say a prayer tonight for that man and his wife 

Say a prayer for the searching, hurting 

For the one thing we all need 

If you don't know what to say 

Just look up to heaven's face and whisper, 'Peace'
