I need some peace
I need some sleep
I need a reason to get up and leave
Something to get me out of this city
I need some love
Straight from the heavens
Sent from above
I've been low down here in this city
No one to wipe these tears that fall
No one to call
I look to the sky
Wonder if anyone can see me cry
Sick of living in fear
Shots out my windows
Death may be near
I still look to the sky
But, I don't why
I need some peace
I need some sleep
I need a reason to get up and leave
Something to get me out of this city
I need some love
Straight from the heavens
Sent from above
I've been low down here in this city
Can anyone out there hear my cries
Late in the night
Sending soldiers to fight
That don't seem right
When there's fighting outside
Right here countryside
I still look to the sky
I don't why
I need some peace
I need some sleep
I need a reason to get up and leave
Something to get me out of this city
I need some love
Straight from the heavens
Sent from above
I've been low down here in this city
