Pray For Peace

I pray for peace.

They require me to kick into high gear.

We may as well have our Ph.D.'s.

Might we compose

Was never taken into account.



I pray they let out or talk it out.

She would give me a wink across the room.

I would've made a really good lawyer.

I had a really good strategy

For putting things back on the wall of the world.



Thank God it was the goddamned wall.

I would have to hide all my valuables.

Who would calm my mother down?

Who would calm me down once I talked her through it?



My mother and I were the official peacemakers.

It was a full-time job.

I would send my mother directly to bed, yeah

Don't collect 200.

We'd talk about it till 5 A.M.

When I'd come visiting her 5 years later.



We would pray for peace.

It was most comfortable and familiar.
