The News Lyrics

When you wake up

Have you read or have you seen the news

Something awful

Something unlawful 

Surrounds you

And what to do

What can you do about it

To try and stop it

No one knows

What they want from you

But the world is screaming at you

To feel or not to feel 

That is the question

To let it in or shut it out

For a blissful ignorance

I don't like the way

The way I feel 

But if your heart isn't breaking 

Are you really living?

Oh I feel so numb

Almost overcome

Because I feel so small

Like I couldn't make a difference

Even if I gave it my all

And all I want is for our voices to be heard

For the more I learn the more it strikes a nerve

To feel or not to feel 

That is the question

To let it in or shut it out

For a blissful ignorance

I don't like the way

The way I feel 

But if your heart isn't breaking 

Are you really living?

So let's talk about it

To feel or not to feel 

That is the question

To let it in or shut it out

For a blissful ignorance

I don't like the way, the way I feel 

But if your heart isn't breaking 

Are you really living?
