The Peace Club project at the University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic features student-written songs with thought-provoking lyrics. "Chaos and Peace" is one such song, expressing the tension between the desire for chaos and the need for peace. The lyrics touch on a range of topics, from the fear of war to the beauty of the stars, from protests and political turmoil to the warmth of a loving relationship. Despite the chaos and uncertainty of the world, the song ends on a hopeful note, emphasizing the importance of love and hope in navigating life's challenges.
The songwriter expresses fear of war, crashes, and impending disaster, but finds solace with their loved one. Despite chaos and protests, they want to be with their partner and embrace the chaos that comes with their peace. The song celebrates the power of love and hope in times of uncertainty and fear.
I’m scared of plan crashes and going to war
No chance that I would get drafted but I ache for the people who’ve fought before
And there’s probably a meteor headed right for this parking lot
But you brought me gardenias and we stare at the sky, look at what we’ve got
Oh my oh I’ve never seen the stars like this
They could swallow me whole and I’d be fine with it
But in that black hole I’d realise everything I’d miss
I’ve gotta get back to you
I want the chaos if your peace comes with it too
I want a warm December and parades on the street
There’s protests going on outside, can you take the heat?
We could run away from it all, find a corner of quiet where we can let our blood simmer down
Cause the earth is on fire, we’re climbing over people and gods big in small towns
But oh my oh I’ve never seen the stars like this
They could swallow me whole and I’d be fine with it
But in that black hole I’d realise everything I’d miss
I’ve gotta get back to you
I want the chaos if your peace comes with it too
love is a fickle thing
But it’s the only way we get around the bend these days
Hope is a dangerous game
So give me your hand and then together we can make a play
Run for the hills but my darling look back before you do
In the stillness I can see the good
I see it in you
Oh my oh I’ve never seen the stars like this
They could swallow me whole and I’d almost enjoy it
But in that black hole I’d realise everything I’d miss
I’ve gotta get back to you
I want the chaos if your peace comes with it too
I want the chaos if your peace comes with it too
This song speaks to the need for change, for breaking down barriers, and for finding peace in a world that's been torn apart. The peace lily serves as a symbol of hope, a reminder that there's still a chance for things to get better, and that we can make a difference if we try. Let's work together to move the stones, break the chains, and clear the bones, and create a space where peace can thrive.
Let’s move the stones, let’s break the chains
Let’s move the rubble and take our place
Let’s clear the bones, let’s make a space
Let’s get the answers, let’s change up the pace
Coz it’s all been said and done there’ll be no one left to blame
Just the birds, the trees, the stars singing out it’s name
Let a peace lily float down from the sky
Let it touch the mouths of rivers run dry
Let it wipe the tears of the mountainsides
Let the peace lily subside
On the edge of a bullet I’ve engraved a name
An image of fortune, a bringer of tame
Across the lands, Across the plains
Across the fears, the toils and the pain
When it’s all been said and done there’ll be no one left to blame
Just the birds, the trees, the stars singing out it’s name
Let a peace lily float down from the sky
Let it touch the mouths of rivers run dry
Let it wipe the tears from the mountainsides
Let the peace lily subside
Maybe we’ll come to our senses
Or maybe we’ll come to our knees
Maybe we’ll let break down our fences
Maybe we’ll find some relief
Let a peace lily float down from the sky
Let it touch the mouths of rivers run dry
Let it wipe the tears from the mountainsides
Let the peace lily subside
