Lets Drift Away and Truly Dream

War surrounds us at every single turn If you give into hate you’ll feel hells burn It feels better to have peace to have peace than to fight Will we ever see a dawn from this dark worlds night Is this the message that we want to send Lets close our eyes and play pretend Put our hands up towards the sky Open our hearts and ask the question why Lets search for love in every stitch and seem Lets drift away and truly dream Do you want to inflict pain and agony Or live righteous and have your spirit free Are you only mighty with a gun and sword in hand Shake in friendship and you will have everyone at your command Is this the message that we want to send Lets close our eyes and play pretend Put our hands up towards the sky Open our hearts and ask the question why Lets search for love in every stitch and seem Lets drift away and truly dream Will you attack a person for who they really are What comfort does it give you to leave and everlasting scar All this violence for power and money to spend You can explain it all to God at your life’s final end Is this the message that we want to send Lets close our eyes and play pretend Put our hands up towards the sky Open our hearts and ask the question why Lets search for love in every stitch and seem Lets drift away and truly dream
