Lyrics

A Piece Of Peace
Frank Blades

[Verse 1]
“It will be over by Christmas” – everyone thought,
But instead of peace on earth, the soldiers still fought.
“A war to end all wars” – but no lessons were learned,
Treaties were signed, and treaties were burnt.

[Prechorus]
People are crying for peace,
People are dying for peace,

[Chorus]
A piece of land where the oil is found,
A piece of dirt where the border used to be,
A piece of what was once the middle ground,
A piece of somewhere that belonged to me,
We need a place where sanity starts,
Before our world is broken apart,
We need peace.
Just a piece of peace.

[Verse 2]
“We will have peace in our time”, the politician said,
But the tanks rolled in, and the people lay dead.
So they created a bomb; said that it would bring peace,
Everyone built them now the world’s on its knees.

[rpt Prechorus]

[rpt Chorus]

[Bridge]
We don’t need to see destruction,
Just to make our country great,
Too much morality malfunction
We need more love and much less hate.

[rpt Chorus]

Peace.
Just a piece of peace.
