Robbie Brown - Breaking News

Led through the darkest tunnel by a gang of reality show senators
Who either forgot or don't care that we're not recast-able characters
If you kill us off in Season 2020, you can't write us back in
The plot has no room left for reentry, and the laugh track's missing

Is there life off the set, or are we already dead?
Change the channel, turn it off
Can't you feel it, something's wrong
We're divided, some are mobilizing
Find the station playing love
Can't you see what we've become
Life together is now polarizing

If we throw our hands up, say bitterness is normal, then we're already doomed
The flame of hate could burn eternal if we don't confront it soon

Are we already late, will blasts of war detonate?
Countless people screaming out
Never progress, just more doubts
Everyone is in ideological stupor
Breaking hearts and breaking news
Light the candles or light the fuse
Everybody has a plan for our future

No, I don't have the answers
But anyone can diagnose the cancer
It's spread so far I can't believe we still function
It hurts to keep the faith
To look out for a brighter day
Even at the brink of destruction, we need to make sure hope survives

Don't turn off life support, don't let the truth distort
Don't turn off life support (we record a heartbeat)

Got just one wish, that when I die
It's with no regrets, no matter failure or success
Did I resist the fear inside
Was it from the heart, will I be missed when I depart?
