Word just came from upstate, Joe Lower the flag again This time it's Dayton, southwest Ohio Last night El Paso, Texas counted twenty-two dead Soon the brass will offer up their thoughts and prayers Soon there'll be protests in the street And the media from out of town Will chew it up and spit it out Then move on to the next one Before we even grieve Yeah, then move on to the next one Before we even grieve Some say we start to die on the day that we're born But no one wants to live life on their knees Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born But we deserve to live life in between A husband kissed the cross that bears his Margie's name And promises he'll see her once again Won't see her children grow Won't see their love grow old Last night their dream became a nightmare And their nightmare has no end Last night their dream became a nightmare And their nightmare has no end Some say we start to die on the day that we're born But no one wants to live life on their knees Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born But we deserve to live life in between These days it's hard to sleep When I lay my head down What if it was your loved one Laying on the ground I'm left to think about What if, what now? Dear God, I wanna pray But tonight I have my doubts When I think about those families now If there's something we can talk about, let's talk about it If there's something we can figure out, let's figure it out If there's something we can talk about, let's talk about it If there's something we can figure out, let's figure it out El Paso, Texas Dayton, Ohio Las Vegas, Nevada Sebring, Florida Orlando, Florida Penn State University Aurora, Illinois Virginia Beach, Virginia Gilroy, California Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Marjory Stoneman Douglas High Columbine Columbine Sandy Hook Elementary Some say we start to die on the day that we're born But no one wants to live life on their knees Maybe we start to die on the day that we're born You believe what you want to believe But we deserve to live life in between Word just came from upstate, Joe Lower the flag again
