Nature's At Peace - Janis Ian

Did you notice, the dawn

Had the nerve to come on

To the sunrise today

Have I said that my head

Had the nerve to be dead

When I wanted to break

Did you see that the sun

Doesn’t need anyone

To come in on time

Nature’s at peace

Every time you see the rain

Did you notice, the trees

Are standing in peace

Without orders, without me

Have I told you the leaves

Can’t be broken or creased

A silent symphony

Did you see the lights

When the clouds began to try

And hide the sun from the sky

Nature’s at peace again

Every time you see the rain

Can it be explained?

Lady Nature’s back again

In a world that’s gone insane

Lady Nature takes away all the yearning

Maybe I should try

To cover up the lies

But the sun in the sky

Has never asked us why

We are burning

Nature’s at peace

Every time you see the rain
