lyrics

I saw the news, the screen don’t lie
I saw the bodies in the street right where they died
I heard the voices crying out across the square
But when morning came they found nobody there

They carried guns, answered the call
They cried for help, but no one came at all
And while the fathers and the sons stayed to fight
It’s slow motion where the East and West collide

Take my hand and lend to me your load
Take a breath and we can learn to float
We’re almost home
In the same boat

I saw the news, three times today
Sent a hundred bucks but can’t say who it saved
I turned the TV off, just to clear my head
But when the lights go down you can't forget the dead

Take my hand and lend to me your load
Take a breath and we can learn to float
We’re almost home
In the same boat

Take my hand and lend to me your load
We’re almost home
In the same boat
