Headlines - Shannon LaBrie

Before the headlines came

I wasn’t listening

I was too engaged

In the media game

Then the headlines came

And the tv was outraged

So of course I felt the same

But I cared to late

Why do we wait til loves in fashion

We sit till we’re told to stand

Why do we wait for one good headline

Before we’ll give a damn

I heard an actor say

We should start giving

I heard a rock star sing

We are the world

It made me feel so brave

Like we are a family

But when the feelings fade

All the hurt remains

Why do we wait til loves in fashion

We sit till we’re told to stand

Why do we wait for one good headline

Before we’ll give a damn

A generation can’t be founded

On the waves of trendy kindness

We need to find our intuition

Take the harder road

That’s where compassion grows

A generation can’t be founded

On the waves of trendy kindness

We need to find our intuition

Take the harder road

That’s where compassion grows

Why do we wait til loves in fashion

We sit till we’re told to stand

Why do we wait for one good headline

Before we’ll give a damn

Before the headlines came

I wasn’t listening

I was too engaged

In the media game
