Peace

People don't want to let go

When there's something you want that they have

They'll bicker, their hearts grow bitter

'Cause you took the glitter out of their hands

When you don't quantify

You'll be disqualified

'Cause the make-believe version of you died

I'm out the door, if you threaten my peace

I've spent too much being others' relief

I don't do love if I have to love on my knees

So please understand

Nothing means more to me than my peace

People will block out the truth if it doesn't match up with their minds

They'll slander, and blame their disaster

On you 'til you retreat them in kind

When you don't quantify

You'll be disqualified

'Cause the make-believe version of you died

I'm out the door, if you threaten my peace

I've spent too much being others' relief

I don't do love if I have to love on my knees

So please understand

Nothing means more to me than my peace
