Nothing else matters
everything shattered
glass, steel and bone
as we all bare witness
we turn to face this test of faith
with candles and hope
to find our way home
As we stand together
hand in hand
waiting for peace to come
looking for someway
to understand
terrified and numb
but standing,
standing still
and waiting,
waiting for peace to come
Nothing will ever
be as simple as it once was
forced to remember
just how fragile life is
with candles and hope
to lead our way home
As we stand together
hand in hand
waiting for peace to come
looking for someway
to understand
terrified and numb
but standing,
standing still
and waiting,
waiting for peace to come
Take this precious moment to breathe
to let yourself be
and love is stronger than hate
that love is fiercer than fear
As we stand together
hand in hand
waiting for peace to come
looking for some way
to understand
terrified and numb
but standing,
standing still
and waiting,
waiting for peace to come
Together hand in hand
(waiting)
waiting and waiting
terrified and numb
but standing, standing, standing still
standing
and waiting, waiting for peace
and waiting, waiting, waiting for peace to come
and waiting, waiting for peace
waiting, waiting for peace
waiting, waiting
waiting, waiting
waiting for peace
waiting
