Bad news like a sucker punch, what do you say?

Air knocked out of my lungs want you to stay

When you hear something difficult don’t back away

Some people say nothing, good ones engage

Don’t turn your back on me Don’t bury your head deep

Just cause you don’t know what to say

Don’t turn your back on me Don’t bury your head deep

Just cause you don’t know what to say

It’s true

That it kicks you in the teeth when you are least expecting

Bad news

Oh it beats you black and blue before you see it coming

Bad news like a sucker punch moving your way

People fill the streets like nothing has changed

Clapped hands if you’re lonely don’t leave the same

Planes fly overhead like any old day

Don’t turn your back on me Don’t bury your head deep

Just cause you don’t know what to say

Don’t turn your back on me Don’t bury your head deep

Just cause you don’t know what to say

It’s true

That it kicks you in the teeth when you are least expecting

Bad news

Oh it beats you black and blue before you see it coming

Maybe you just want a world of destruction

I feel like I’m being consumed

Maybe I’m expecting a perfect reaction

It’s pulled me back

It’s true

That it kicks you in the teeth when you are least expecting

Bad news

Oh it beats you black and blue before you see it coming

It’s true

That it kicks you in the teeth when you are least expecting

Bad news

Oh it beats you black and blue before you see it coming
