A song just died in my heart tonight
Because it doesn't wanna be heard
In a world with a melody of fright
And a repeating chorus of hurt
Where people are outcasts
For what they believe
Where who you love
Can cause you grieve
Where religion and politics
Try to dictate your life
Where a different opinion
Can cause you strife
A song just died in my heart tonight
It got sick from this society
And dying out is its flight
To find much needed sobriety
No more people dying
Out of disrespect
No more children crying
No more families wrecked
No more being told
How to live who to love
No more living in the mould
Of a false white dove
A song just died in my heart tonight
But I hope it will revive
Respect, love and acceptance just might
Bring the peace song back to life
