Lyric

Does anyone out there even know what war is really like?

Soldiers always say the reason that they go to war is love - to keep the ones they care about from harm

The reality is nothing but a brutal strategy of cold calculations, and lives are scattered with no choice at all

A twenty-seven percent attrition rate -

Can you understand how many tens of thousands that means, suffering and dying?

Have you ever truly, deeply thought about the weight of what war really is?

If only people who could do that filled this world

I don't believe that war would ever have to be

Tell me how can we make all the wars disappear?

If we pray for peace will war just go away?

I don't know, I cannot find the answer

Today again I pray for all the fallen souls

Does anyone out there even know what peace is really like?

On social media today another worthless argument has already been set ablaze

"Why can't I find a wealthy handsome man at any matchmaking agency these days?"

You who wrote it and you who lit the fire -

You're both tangled in some colossal, bottomless misunderstanding

Have you ever loved another person truly, with no conditions placed at all?

If only people who could do that filled this world

I don't believe that war would ever have to be

Tell me how can we make all the wars disappear?

Tell me how can we make all the wars disappear?

If we pray for peace will war just go away?

I don't know, I cannot find the answer

Today again I pray for all our children's futures

The very news that feels unreal already holds some darkness buried in its heart

The world today keeps tearing down the enemy's ideology from a comfortable distance

Feminism, right wing, left wing -

I can hear what every side is trying hard to say

But it's the failure to accept each other's difference

That has always been the root of war

That's why I've made my choice: to fill this world with waves and waves of light

That's why I've made my choice: to carry light to everyone through every song I write

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

Even if I alone could never change a single thing

Someone who hears my song may be the hero that this world is waiting for

And someone in the future lit and carried by that hero's flame

May be the one to bring eternal peace upon this world at last

Because I believe in this unbroken chain of light that passes on and on

Today again I sing for peace with every last drop that I have

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

Because every single one of us is the hero of our story here

Because every single one of us is precious and we matter

No one in this world should ever have to be killed

No one in this world should ever have to kill

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

Every faith that truly prays for peace is real and right

Every faith that wages war is hollow and a lie

If only all of them could understand that truth

If only all of them could understand that truth

I am begging you, please reach toward something real and true

Please accept and love each way that everyone around you is different from you

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray

May peace be upon this world, I pray
