Every time the fear kicks in I - look for updates to calm
Can't watch but can't look away - it just goes on
Want it to stop but the words keep endlessly flooding in
I tell myself it's just to know what's happening
Crisis after crisis how much can everything change
How long do I hide When does this end?
I see the fires in the night sky
I'm waiting for a clear sign
I'm just waiting til it's all through
Whoah the bad news
I'm reading between each line
I feel the fear climbing my spine
I'd close my eyes til it's all through
But I can't stop watching bad news
I can't sleep so I look for more - ways to understand
Want to close my eyes to it but it's racing on
Every time I see it, I know I can't change anything
Powerless to help, can barely understand
What more can we do when we can't do anything more
They say hiding helps, but I'm losing my mind
I see the fires in the night sky
I'm waiting for a clear sign
I'm just waiting til it's all through
Whoah the bad news
I'm reading between each line
I feel the fear climbing my spine
I'd close my eyes til it's all through
But I can't stop watching bad news
