lyrics

Is it real or is it fiction
What’s on television
Brothers dying where city skies lost
The count on explosions
Profit makers
Greedy leaders
Witness before their eyes

How many lives will cease
Before we get to see the light
On this state of emergency

Six o’clock news make me dizzy
Who is the enemy?
Nine o’clock news
We turn a blind eye on reality
We become numb while our heroes and sons
Lose in bloodshed

How many lives will cease
Before we get to see a light
On this state of emergency

Soldiers burning schools and temples
Troops attacking innocent people
We buy our children plastic guns
We watch warplanes dropping bombs

How many lives will cease
Before we get to see the light
On this state of emergency
