very quick write, then I lost it for 15 m and found it again.
Peace Revival
© 2022 Cindy Prince
We are here to love
That's pretty much it
Love unconditionally
So why is it...that we fail?
We are here to help
Anyone who needs it
To be unselfish
So why...do we sell our souls?
Chorus
It's time for a peace revival
Let's bring more and more in
No more fighting for survival
Today is the day to begin
Let today be the day to begin
We are here to grow
That can't be done with war
Only peace will work
So why...can't we stand for.... peace
Repeat chorus

Such a good use of the idea, to apply it to something so fundamental. You take a protest song approach, but with a softer sentiment.

Today is the day to begin, is so simple and moving. I love that gentleness. Hope it finds its music.

Right? I agree with your point of view in every way Cindy. A message that needs to be heard far and wide these days. Excellent skirmish write!

Nice sentiment. Love the hopefulness in the lyric. We have to lead with our art. Nice.

This is brilliant Cindy! And very timely with the horrible things going on in Europe! A really perfectly structured set of lyrics (as I have come to expect from you!!!) Your words are wise and you have crafted a lovely song from them! I am impressed and moved! Great skirmishing!!
