Peace on My Little Piece of Earth

As the twinkling lights Brighten long long nights There's some holiday cheer Coming out with the plastic reindeer But people are down All over this town Saying things are bad Shooting down any joy to be had Yeah the world is a mess But what good is the stress? I'm not buying the doom and gloom Maybe I'm in my own cocoon 'Cause I believe there's hope I believe there's love, I believe there's kindness Even if it's just peace On my little piece Of earth From where I stand Looking over this land People act so tough But they really just want to be loved Those family and friends I'll see on weekends They're so great to see But a few are a little angry Oh the world is a mess But what good is the stress? I'm not buying the doom and gloom Maybe I'm in my own cocoon 'Cause I believe there's hope I believe there's love, I believe there's kindness Even if it's just peace On my little piece Of earth There's such good in our neighbors Never making the papers I'm not buying the doom and gloom Maybe I'm in my own cocoon 'Cause I believe there's hope I believe there's love, I believe there's kindness Even if it's just peace On my little piece Of earth
