Lyrics
Somewhere in the darkness
Somewhere in space
There is this speck that's home to all the human race
You'd think they'd get along
Sharing a tiny place
But it?s not true
For so little?s shared
As circles are chased (As circles are traced)
The voice of the hungry
The voices of pain
Choke the air the planet wide
Again and again
Humanity becomes insanity
Is nobody near?
Will nobody hear?
My Anthem of Peace
Humanity becomes insanity
Is nobody near?
Will nobody hear?
My Anthem of Peace
Oh, someday - Surely this pain will fade
We?ll look back and see
That speck turning free
A world of progress made
Until that day - All of us pray
For much better times
Shutting the door
On senseless war
These worldwide crimes
With countless millions
Just counting on bread
I counted the hopes that live inside everyone?s head
And with lives just wasting ? But their dreams aren?t dead
Don't look away
Just turn their way
Let?s change it instead
Let?s join together
Millions strong
Let?s turn the world round to face all that?s still wrong
Humanity can change insanity
And peace will appear
If ev?ryone hears
An Anthem of Peace?
The Anthem of Peace
