PEACE AGAINST TERRORISM

peace where art thou the dame I need to know

Momma cries for me

But last she saw me she wiped my tears

Momma cries for me but my tears fall for daddy

Daddy left me crying and the news says he bid farewell

Tell me if he waved goodbye or if he smiled

Please don’t hide behind your tinted picture for I need to know

I need to know if his last wave is the reason every mom’s heart is sore

I need to know if my friends will smile tomorrow

Or if another woman’s tear will dilute the bloody streets

I wait at heaven’s gate and the queue grows long

Daddy I need to know what you did because I don’t see you here

Dear God give me peace of mind as this terror draws near

Peace where art thou, the dame I need to know
