Can you hear it
Does it drive you mad?
Do you see it
Does it make you sad?
When the world is burning
And everything is left unbalanced
Can anyone break the silence

Did you see it on the news today
They say all hope has gone away
One thousand people in their sheets
**** our people in the streets
And it seems in the world
The only thing left is violence
Can anyone break the silence

Last night I saw choppers fill the skies
They don't care they don't know why
People lock their doors
And throw away the key
They close their eyes so they won't see
And it sounds so absurd
That we **** each other over diamonds
Can anyone break the silence?
