I Want To Believe

I want to believe
We still remember peace
And that we can still talk about it
With true peace in mind

Not as if it’s an illusion
Too vague to achieve
Or a victory for just a few
Not as a conquest
Where some lose and others win
Or a massacre in some sick baptism

I want to believe
We still remember peace
Where no one has to die
So we can live.
