Turned on the news today
What else do I see
Something going on somewhere
It's so hard to believe

Shots going off
Right on my TV
And I can't help myself
To think this could be me

Why do we have to fight?
Why do we have to cry?
Sacrifice our lives
To prove we have the right
Then sleep these lonely nights

Why does it have to hurt?
to mend these endless burns
What do we have to lose?
There's nothing left to prove
Where there's a will, there's a way

Walking down the road today
A lady came up to me
Asking where her child had gone
It's so hard to believe

One minute you're there
the next minute you're gone
What's going on?
And I can't help myself
To think these things went wrong
