Peace Sign
Jonathan Young
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh, woah, ohh ohh
Well, it's strange my head is rememberin'
How the airplane flying overhead
Looks so effortless, but I cannot guess
Why it lingers in my mind
Evening after this, I'm a crying mess
And to be stronger now, my only wish
So I can finally have the bravery
So I can reach on up to the sky
This cruel fate engraving
It's carved into the stone
Hoping it reveals itself all to me and then I will
Know just where to go
This moment, this moment
I know that I can breathe
Hanging on a feeling believe in
My only meaning!
I hear a voice a' calling, telling me to risk it
Asking if I have been going the distance
Singing with a passion that I cannot deny
My eyes are swollen with the tears that I've been crying
But, to the rest of the world, ever smiling
Singing for the courage that I'm dying to show!
With my peace sign up when I say goodbye
Write a story of a hero!
I didn't want to say I protected you
And you were never weak, I'm number two
You were stronger than I have ever been
And you mean more to me than you know
I have changed myself since the day I yelled
About how you go on by yourself
So if you have to laugh, I should tell you that
I'm afraid that I'm all alone
I'm kicking, I'm biting
Impossible to breathe
Going down below the depths of my troubled head
And I can feel my stomach heave
I see it, I need it
It calms the blood that beats
If only I could touch it, enough that
It's mine for keeping
I hear a voice a' calling, telling me to risk it
Asking if I have been going the distance
Singing with a passion that I cannot deny
My eyes are swollen with the tears that I've been crying
But, to the rest of the world, ever smiling
Singing for the courage that I'm dying to show!
With my peace sign up when I say goodbye
Write a story of a hero!
Those days gettin' rowdy, gettin' bloody, I was
All scraped, gettin' worn and gettin' dirty, now I
Hear you talkin' and it all is coming back
I see it in my mind - my memories revived
I could apologize for sleeping in a chrysalis and
WIth every passing night, I wish that I was leaving it and
I swear that I'll be back again!
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh, woah, ohh ohh
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh, woah, ohh
Oh, woah, ohh
I hear a voice a' calling, telling me to risk it
Asking if I have been going the distance
Singing with a passion that I cannot deny
My eyes are swollen with the tears that I've been crying
But, to the rest of the world, ever smiling
Singing for the courage that I'm dying to show!
With my peace sign up when I say goodbye
Write a story of a hero!
With my peace sign up when I say goodbye
Write a story of a hero!
