Lyric of the Week | Will Dailey > June 1, 2009

I’ve been looking for a peace of mind/ I’ve been searching every day all my life

Videos by American Songwriter

Tell me I’m the only one
Torn and tired and broken up
When some by God
and some by the gun
Rush to kill another mother’s son
With modern law
With no modern love

I’ve been looking for a peace of mind
I’ve been searching every day all my life
There’s a party going on upstairs
And there’s a war that is raging out there
And all I know
It’s hard to find
Peace of mind

The ignorance in my hometown
Wears the fashion of distraction
till it wears it out
And it’s few who have the hammers
While the rest they got none
They just live in the sun
And they die in the dust
With your modern law
With no modern love

Peace of Mind
