Lyrics
V1:
I found out today/ Yo, it made me cry/ 32 students, V-Tech, made to die/ One pissed-off kid with a gun in his hand/ Shot up the whole spot, then himself, 'what a plan'/ Yet is makes me think/ Man! What's the point?/ And what happened to this person as a boy/ That started pushing him away from the bunches/ Classroom brawls and stolen lunches?/ I don't know, but the results humungous/ Now so many families watch their youngest/ Get cremated or buried deep in the ground/ While everyone tells stories, mourning around/ I think we've got to see this stuff as a sign/ Start to commit to something real in our lives/ Before we're left behind/ Live through love/ And know there's something better for you waiting above/.
Chorus:
How many days will the killers keep coming/ So many ways that we can start to learn from it/ I know it's a change but we've got to see where we've been/ Why is the pain inside me so deep?/ I'd follow a path but no one wants to show me/ It's time to come as one people again/.
V2:
Questions come to mind when I start to breathe/ Thinking 'bout why we continue to be/ At each other's throats/ Like wolves hunting for goats/ In sheep's coats of clothes/ Sold for jewels and fuels/ Boats and pools/ Automatic tools and shoes/ We do it cause we're caught in attic rules/ Status means more than morals/ Sadness portals/ Pass that's immortals/ Where does it stem from? Hate in our chest/ When does the end come? Look up in the sky and be blessed/ It depends some how we see the people around us/ Evil found our pound and hounded us to now through us/ Don't believe them/ Find freedom/ Breathe in life, It's a wonderful beating/ We've got to see the good from among us/ I can seee you through hate, or I could see you as brothers/.
Chorus
V3:
So where do we go?/ What do we do?/ Make the world better for the sacrifice of a few/ Get out of your house and breathe life/ Talk to people stuck in their cellular vice/ It's a problem when we don't speak anymore/ Then we won't know a thing about each other, fear forms/ Yet we wonder why we're lonely/ I can't find someone to hug and hold me/ Yet how many times did you talk to strangers today?/ Not a single one you say/ Electronics fills hypnotics like a bionic/ So you don't use your sonic/ Straight catatonic/ Living like a hobit/ Thinking your fine/ Cause no one else is doing it so why should I?/ You live like this, you'll never find move/ Just a prisoner held by fears that you've produced/ In your mind/.
Chorus
