Turned on the news today,
|
What else do I see?
|
Something going on somewhere else
|
It means the world to me.
|
|
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.
|
|
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.
