lyrics

I can't believe it's happening again
We haven't changed a thing but thought we'd reach a different end
and I feel like a fool out in the rafters
can see my body but cannot feel my hands
floundering out in the ocean
just floating there hoping to find land

chorus
and we were sitting on our laurels and watching them take arms
oh sitting there and watching as they sounded the alarm
there must be something that we can do
there must be something that we can do

i can see the quiet boy there
in the corner of the room
pull him aside and tell him his life matters too
i've got my telescope aimed right at the stars
just reminding me how small we all are

chorus
and we were sitting on our laurels and watching them take arms
oh sitting there and watching as they sounded the alarm
there must be something that we can do
there must be something that we can do

let's tell those bastards how we feel
let's tell those bastards how we feel
let's make them feel it, make it real
let's make them feel it and make it real

chorus
and we were sitting on our laurels and watching them take arms
oh sitting there and watching as they sounded the alarm
there must be something that we can do
there must be something that we can do
