"The News"
War, a war
A war on the far side
On the other side of the planet
And I've got war
A war, a war, right behind my eyes
Right behind them just like a headache
So I turn on (the news)
Turn off (the news)
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Far, I'm far
So far, from the front line
Quite the opposite, I'm safe inside
But I worry, and I give money
And I feel useless behind this computer
And that's just barely scratched the surface of my mind
So I turn on (the news)
Turn off (the news)
Turn on (the news)
Turn off the news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Exploitative, performative, informative
And we don't know the half of it
Rhetorical, deplorable, historical
And all along we called it normal
Exploitative, performative, informative
And we don't know the half of it
Rhetorical, deplorable, historical
And all along we called it normal
All along we called it normal
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
Every second our collective heart breaks
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off the news
