Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm watching the TV news, it gets worse by the day
The news shouts the chaos, but we just seem to look away
A crazy man in a big white house, perched there on his throne
Spinning tales of glory, while we suffer on our own

[Pre-Chorus]
Does no one else see his delusions?
Errant thoughts like smoke in the breeze
Are we all just swept in a comfort so easy to please?

[Chorus]
Is everyone so complacent, wrapped up in the haze?
Counting down the minutes, lost in this crooked maze
We cry out for the truth, while the fire burns inside
But the echoes of our voices fade into the night

[Verse 2]
It ain't just the news, it's the silence that bites
Through laughter and the chatter, there's a tension in the lights
Folks nod their heads, but their eyes don't agree
Lost in the siren song of a world that can't see

[Bridge]
What happened to the people, who used to question the fight?
Are we all too weary, to bring the dark to light?
We traded in our voices for the flicker of the screen
But there's a storm a-comin', silent but unseen

[Chorus]
Is everyone so complacent, wrapped up in the haze?
Counting down the minutes, lost in this crooked maze
We cry out for the truth, while the fire burns inside
But the echoes of our voices fade into the night

[Outro]
Oh, I'm watching the news, and it gets worse every day,
But I still have my hopes, I won't let them fade away,
Together we can rise, let the voices lift like wings,
With every heart united, the return of freedom that it brings.
