Away

We sang you two songs, Did you enjoy it?
We’d now sing you one more, Hope you like it.
Take you away with our melody,
To a place of immense serenity.
Away from the daily newspaper,
With bomb blasts, corruption, murder.
Away from stress, away from pain,
Away from the worries of your day-to-day.

Ch:
Let us take you away to a special place,
A special place of music so sweet,
Where love doesn’t have a price-tag,
Where the children run safe on the street.

Stop the fighting, stop the lies,
What happens when peace dies?
Drop the drugs, drop that gun,
What would result if violence won?
A mother is crying for her dead son,
Who lay still under a smoke masked sun.
In times of trouble what have we done?
Why can’t we all live as one?

Ch.

Bridge:
Realize-
Open your eyes.
Do you ever Wonder-
Why do they surrender.
Show some Respect-
That’s what everyone expects.
So just Forgive-
Live and let them live.

So let us take you away to a special place,
A special place of music so sweet,
Where love doesn’t have a price-tag,
Where the children run safe on the street.

Ch.

A Place Where Music Means Something

Is there a place deep in your soul,
A place of drums n rock n roll,
Where is a place where people meet- to feel,
The good ol’ fun, keep it real.

Where music is in everything,
You don’t need to know lyrics to sing,
Feel the sound cut in so deep- like a knife,
When the song enslaves life.

Ch:
A place where music means something,
That’s the place I wanna be.
A place where music means something,
Is all I wanna see.

Life came first, and then the song,
But when did it all go so wrong?
When did the noise of bombs and guns- drown out,
The music that life brings out?

Can you help me out this grave ,
So that together we can save,
The million wandering souls- paranoid,
At the peace that they would find.

Ch.

When the sound of that guitar,
Is amplified over the noise war,
You can still hear them scream and shout- “SOS,
Help get us out of this mess.”

Ch.

Bridge:
Music is in everything,
Music is in pain,
Music can also help you find,
Joy beyond restrain.
Music is keeping it real,
Music is in hurt,
Music can also help you heal,
Life inflicted wounds
