I rise to wake up in the morning
As the sun begins to greet the day
The first thing I always seem to do is watch the news
And what I read, you know
I just can't seem to get it off my mind
So much sorrow and sadness
With fear instilled inside the head
And with nuclear war seeming not so far away
I just can't sleep at night
I just can't seem to get it off my mind
But if tomorrow never comes
Why are so many on the run?
And if our life here it seems to fade
Then why do we wait?
Seems hard to find the will to go on
On the high horse sits the preacher
Condemning sinners straight to hell
So hypocritically he points at me to somehow set me free, yeah
With hell to haunt my mind
The blind leading the blind
But you won't lead me
'Cause if tomorrow never comes
Why are so many on the run?
And if our life here it seems to fade
Then why do so many hide away?
'Cause if tomorrow never comes
Why do we continue to run?
And if our life here it seems to fade
Then why do we wait?
Seems hard to find the will to go on
'Cause watching the news
It gives me the blues
