Title: PEACE ON EARTH
Artist: U2
Album: ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND
Track: 11


Heaven on earth we need it now I'm sick of all of this hanging around.
Sick of sorrow, I'm sick of the pain, I'm sick of hearing
again and again that there's gonna be peace on earth.
Where I grew up there weren't many trees
where there was we'd tear them down and use them on our enemies.
They say that what you mark will surely overtake you
and you become a monster so the monster will not break you.
And it's already gone too far you said that if you go in hard you won't get hurt.
Jesus can you take the time to throw a drowning man a line peace on earth.
Tell the ones who hear no sound whose sons are living in the ground peace on earth.
No who's or why's no one cries like a mother cries for peace on earth.
She never got to say goodbye to see the color in his eyes
now he's in the dirt peace on earth.
They're reading names out over the radio all the folks the rest of us won't get to know.
Sean and Julia, Gareth Anne and Peter their lives are bigger than any bigger.
Jesus can you take the time to throw a drowning man a line
peace on earth.
To tell the ones who hear no sound whose sons are living in the ground peace on earth.
Jesus in the song you wrote the words are sticking in my throat peace on earth.
Hear it every christmas time but hope and history won't rhyme so what's it worth.
This peace on earth, peace on earth...
