when all of the living is hard now
in your eyes
and selling your soul to the evil
is the best that you can do
tell me would you stand
when they take you from her hand
would it tear your heart in two
if she leaves before you do
and waiting for peace
waiting for peace of mind
you struggle to keep
keep your head up high
and the world seems a mess
when you look at it sometimes
yeah the world seems a mess
when you look at it sometimes
moments are freezing in silence
that you try hard to push away
but time keeps on dripping like water
and the setting sun’s on the way
tell me would you stand
when they take you from her hand
will break your only hope
if they tell you she won’t come home
and waiting for peace
waiting for peace of mind
you struggle to keep
keep your head up high
and the world seems a mess
when you look at it sometimes
yeah the world seems a mess
when you look at it sometimes
and waiting for peace
waiting for peace of mind
you struggle to keep
keep your head up high
and the world seems a mess
when you look at it sometimes
yeah the world seems a mess
when you look at it sometimes
