10 000 Years (Peace Is Now) - Live

the world is burning down 
can't you smell the smoke in the air? 
war disease and famine 
this demon she is everywhere 
poets and preachers and politicians 
they've all had their say 
and we got 10 000 years 
devoted to nothing 
but tomorrow and yesterday 
if all of the ignorance in the world 
passed a second ago 
what would you say? 
who would you obey? 
I am here to say that 
peace is now 
mr. president 
I hereby pardon you of all your crimes 
for they are just as much mine 
selfishness and separation have led me 
to believe that the world is not my problem 
the world is not my problem 
I am the world 
and your are the world 
if all the ignorance in the world 
passed a second ago 
what would you say? 
who would you obey? 
I am here to say that 
peace is now
