Tranquility

It only takes one lone soul

It only takes one in a thousand

The absence of fear in your eyes

No, that's not bravery

As children we learn it's wrong

To put out the light of another

Our innocence lost over time

Means to an end

It's hard to hold your head up high

But we must try

Sway together in the dark

It's supposed to be

Cos I want to know the end

And you never ever need to fight

But you're fighting everyday

And I don't know when your light will go out

Innocent crying child

The heart of your enemy

My heart to heart with the light

And we always get along

Counting the stars in the sky

Thinking why they have to die

Just face to face we can hear

A voice telling us it's wrong

Counting the stars in the sky

It was like a lullaby

For sunsets I'll break the rules

We learnt playing down in the heather

The secrets behind all the veils

We just use other words

For freedom we make our charge

For friendship we bear down on others

Can't one of you just calculate

Tranquility?

It's hard to hold your head up high

But we must try

Sway together in the dark

It's supposed to be

Cos I want to know the end

And you never ever need to fight

But you're fighting everyday

And I don't know when your light will go out

Innocent crying child

The heart of your enemy

Sway together in the dark

It's supposed to be

Cos I want to know the end

And you never ever need to fight

But you're fighting everyday

And I don't know when your light will go out

Innocent crying child

The heart of your enemy

My heart to heart with the light

And we always get along

Counting the stars in the sky

Thinking why they have to die

Just face to face we can hear

A voice telling us it's wrong

Counting the stars in the sky

It was like a lullaby
