[Verse 1]
I'll never be what you want me to be
Said-said-said I, I know the truth has not forsaken me

[Chorus]
Peace in the night gon' save my life
Peace in the night gon' save my life
Said peace in my mind gon' save my life, life

[Verse 2]
We had bed peace, you had the best of me
But that was all yesterday, so I let it be
Can you accept me? Not talkin' physically
I got at least four, five more sides to me

[Chorus]
Peace in the night gon' save my life
Peace in the night gon' save my life
Said peace in my mind gon' save my life

[Post-Chorus]
Life ain't really, ain't really, ain't really
What it used to be
Life ain't really, ain't really, ain't really
What it used to be
[Chorus]
Peace in the night gon' save my life
Peace in the night gon' save my life
Said peace in my mind gon' save my life

[Post-Chorus]
Life ain't really, ain't really, ain't really
What it used to be
Life ain't really, ain't really, ain't really
What it used to be

[Bridge]
Peace in my mind gon' save me
Peace in my mind gon' save me
Peace in my mind gon' save my life

[Chorus]
Peace in my mind gon' save my life
Peace in my mind gon' save my life
Peace in the night gon' save my life, life

[Post-Chorus]
I said life ain't really, ain't really, ain't really
What it used to be
Life ain't really, ain't really, ain't really
What it used to be
[Outro]
What it used to be
What it—what it used to be
Life ain't really...
What it used to be
