Peace

The song 'Peace' by Oar is a heartfelt plea for reconciliation and harmony in a relationship. The lyrics convey a deep desire to move past conflicts and find a place of mutual understanding and love. The opening lines, 'I don’t wanna fight no more / I only wanna get to shore,' set the tone for the song, expressing a longing to end disputes and reach a safe, peaceful place together. The imagery of slamming doors and derailed tracks symbolizes the destructive nature of arguments and the lost time that could have been spent in happiness.

Throughout the song, the narrator emphasizes the importance of laughter, smiles, and simple moments of togetherness. Lines like 'I just wanna make you laugh / I just wanna see that smile' highlight the value of joy and connection in a relationship. The repeated refrain, 'I want love, I want us / I want you, I want me and I want peace,' underscores the central theme of the song: the desire for a loving, peaceful coexistence. This refrain serves as a mantra, reinforcing the narrator's commitment to rebuilding and nurturing the relationship.

The song also touches on the need for a safe haven in a chaotic world. The verse, 'Everybody needs a place / Somewhere that’s warm and safe for shelter from this crazy world we’re in,' speaks to the universal need for security and comfort. However, the narrator acknowledges their own role in disrupting this peace, apologizing for causing pain and promising to make amends. The closing lines reiterate the desire to end the night on a positive note, with a kiss and a promise of peace. 'Peace' by Oar is a poignant reminder of the importance of love, forgiveness, and the pursuit of harmony in our closest relationships.
