"Peacemaker" lyrics

Tell me how you did it
Did you wave a flag
Were your enemies laughing?
Did you laugh back
Were there scenes of glory?
Were there cries of pain
Were they happy to see her?
Did you regret that you came?

I'm only asking 'cause I get confused
There's a tug-of-war happening when nobody moves

And I'm afraid that this beautiful place could be
Ripped and torn apart
Living free but we cannot agree, and it
Oh it breaks my heart, tell me now
Oh peacemaker
Where have you gone?
Oh peacemaker
We really need someone

Tell me how you said it
Were you scared to offend?
Were you walking on eggshells?
With family and friends
Did you start to feel hatred?
Did you start to despise?
Other people around you
Who didn't see eye to eye

I'm only asking 'cause there's nothing to lose
And nobody here knows what to do

And I'm afraid that this beautiful place could be
Ripped and torn apart
Living free but we cannot agree, and it
Oh it breaks my heart, tell me now
Oh peacemaker
Where are you now?
Oh peacemaker
Come and show us how
Show us how
Yeah

You once had a dream
You once had a song
Whisper it now
And I'll sing along

Peacemaker
Peacemaker

And I'm afraid that this beautiful place could be
Swept into the dark
Living here and I'm living in fear, and it
It breaks my heart
Oh peacemaker
Where have you gone?
Oh peacemaker
We really need someone
