Headlines Lyrics

Before the headlines came
I wasn't listening
I was too engaged
In the media game
Then the headlines came
And the tv was outraged
So of course I felt the same
But I cared to late

Why do we wait til loves in fashion
We sit till we're told to stand
Why do we wait for one good headline
Before we'll give a damn

I heard an actor say
We should start giving
I heard a rock star sing
We are the world
It made me feel so brave
Like we are a family
But when the feelings fade
All the hurt remains

Why do we wait til loves in fashion
We sit till we're told to stand
Why do we wait for one good headline
Before we'll give a damn

A generation can't be founded
On the waves of trendy kindness
We need to find our intuition
Take the harder road
That's where compassion grows

A generation can't be founded
On the waves of trendy kindness
We need to find our intuition
Take the harder road
That's where compassion grows

Why do we wait til loves in fashion
We sit till we're told to stand
Why do we wait for one good headline
Before we'll give a damn

Before the headlines came
I wasn't listening
I was too engaged
In the media game
