Is Peace Worth Standing For
by Simon Forge
The heart of the song is a question that becomes more uncomfortable the longer you consider it: If we believe in peace, are we willing to stand up for it when doing so costs us something? Rather than simply condemning war or celebrating peace, these lyrics explore the contradictions of ordinary people who want to live peacefully but sometimes remain silent when injustice happens around them. It's about fear, conscience, family, sacrifice, and the difficult difference between wanting peace and having the courage to defend it.
