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 'em just like a headache

So I turn on the news
Turn off the news

Every second our collective hearts break
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 hearts brеak
All together evеry 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 a 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 off the news
Turn off the news

Every second our collective hearts break
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 hearts break
All togethe, 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 call it normal

All Along we call it normal

Every second our collective hearts break
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 hearts break
All together every single head shakes
Shut your eyes, but it won't go away
Turn on, turn off, the news
