The Biggest Heart (song)

Chorus:

Bit by bit,

This world tears apart

We need someone back

Who had the biggest heart

He gave his life

So we could live today

But now

What will he have to say?

Verse 1:

Can we please stop the wars?

They are tearing us apart

We should open different doors

And make a stronger heart

Too many people get hurt

And too many people die

Back to old times, we need to revert

So we can satisfy

It's unnecessary to fight

And it won't make us strong

This doesn't seem quite right

Will this be lifelong?

I hope it isn't

Because the next people won't like it

It will be like a prison

And this world will be split

The good and the bad

The rich and the poor

The mad and the sad

And there will be no cure

The only cure is to start now

By making it a better place

We'll make it through somehow

This isn't a race

Lets first stop the wars

So there are no more fights

Both indoors and outdoors

Should we start tonight?

It may take more than that

But at least we can start

We shouldn't have combat

So we don't tear apart

When we send soldiers away

Sometimes they don't come back

When they were supposed to be home yesterday

Because there was an attack

Whatever happened to peace on earth?

And now what is it worth?

There is so much war that it makes us sore

Why don't we ever rest

I think that would be best

Can't we have a good life

That is what I always strife

That is what I need

So I can succeed

Chorus:

Bit by bit, this world tears apart

We need someone back, who had the biggest heart

He gave his life, so we could live today

But now what will he have to say

Verse 2:

What is happening to all of us

And why couldn't blacks take the bus

That was a very cruel state

Because there was so much hate

But think back way before that

When a wagon was where you sat

Everybody was nice back then

Even all the big huge men

Wouldn't it be nice to get back

What now days we lack

The worry less sleep

Without a peep

Going outside

Without having to hide

Going place without the worry

And the need to hurry

Just being free

Without paying a fee

Why does it have to be this way,

With so much annoyance everyday

There is so much violence around

That is what I have found

Why can't we stop?

Should we call a cop?

But that won't help

'Cause we'll still yelp

There is always violence somewhere out there

Having peace is very rare

Sometimes I hate living here

Because there is so much fear

I wish there was somewhere else I could go

Where people there aren't so low

Why can't we just take a day

To put all the bad guys away

Chorus:

Bit by bit, this world tears apart

We need someone back, who had the biggest heart

He gave his life, so we could live today

But now what will he have to say

    phrasing in places seems a bit fuddled to me:

    "We need someone back
    Who had the biggest heart"

    I am not certain how to rephrase it as I am not certain what it is, precisely, that the author is trying to convey... I feel I miss out on a large portion of songs when people submit lyrics, as I am not hearing the music...

    The Biggest Heart

    I liked this one. Lots of reasons composed into a song.
