27 Down Lyrics

It's just another day
There's things you should have done
You grab the things you need
Your keys, your cash, your gun
It's too late,you've published you position now
You can't wait to say it's not your fault somehow
You don't seem to understand the reason why
Things have to change

And now you turn on your TV
You wanna change it but you're staring at the screen
I guess you're frozen 'cause you don't like what you see
They're only children in this senseless tragedy
Do you feel anything at all?
Are you affected by the images you saw?
I think you're
Never gonna learn
Never gonna see
27 down in today's catastrophe

Do you really believe?
The weapons have no blame
Are they as innocent?
As all the lives they claim
It's too late the echoes split in half the crowd
You just wait. You'll have your chance to speak out loud
You don't seem to realise the damage done to everyone

And now you turn on your TV
You wanna change it but you're staring at the screen
I guess you're frozen 'cause you don't like what you see
They're only children in this senseless tragedy
Do you feel anything at all?
Are you affected by the images you saw?
I think you're
Never gonna learn
Never gonna see
27 down in today's catastrophe

Do you wanna be the last one standing?
When the world's on its knees saying give it up
Do you wanna be the one they turn to pointing fingers
Passing on the blame

And now you turn on your TV
You wanna change it but you're staring at the screen
I guess you're frozen 'cause you don't like what you see
They're only children in this senseless tragedy
Do you feel anything at all?
Are you affected by the images you saw?
I think you're
Never gonna learn
Never gonna see
27 down in today's catastrophe
