| I heard about these kids walkin’on a train track
|
| Forty tons of steel bearin’down on them
|
| And they just turned their backs
|
| Channel 5 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 got on living without peace
|
| I know a man who sits and stares at kitchen cabinet door
|
| He hides a whiskey bottle he hasn’t touched since
|
| Well, this is day four
|
| He told his wife, this time he would try
|
| She was just about to leave
|
| No reply but her eyes cried
|
| 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 hurtin’searchin’for the one thing we all need
|
| If you don’t know what to say
|
| Look up to Heaven’s face
|
| And pray peace |
