	Story Behind the Song I started writing the lyrics of this song about 2 years ago, a way to exorcize all the things I feel are going wrong around the planet. It took me about a year to finish. Lyrics All is quiet in my village But I can’t find my peace of mind Although the food here tastes like heaven And the past is left behind From the bakery to the market At last I walk a humane pace But slowing down is not enough Enough to stop the human race I fear for you my child In this uncertain world Nature escaping from our hands And the tame becoming wild All is quiet in my village But I can’t find my peace of mind Policemen beating activists For wanting a world less unkind Is it my own unsatisfaction Or is it something in the air Too many cries for help around us Happiness cannot be a private affair I fear for you my child In this uncertain world Nature escaping from our hands And the tame becoming wild All is quiet in my village But I can’t find my peace of mind Nuclear waste in our gardens Children playing with landmines Some prefer war to losing face Other solutions could be worse But couldn’t words fill out the space Between a bullet and a corpse I fear for you my child In this uncertain world Nature escaping from our hands And the tame becoming wild I fear for you my child In this unfaithful world Nature escaping from our hands And the tame becoming wild
