kingsmere x - today lyrics
[verse]
today’s the day i’m gonna live my life
gotta lot of nothing but i’ve made plenty of sacrifices
pulling it together and i’m gonna make it through
got a lot of sh-t behind me gotta a lot of sh-t to do
but it doesn’t matter cause a matter of fact there’s a
man in the back of the cl-ss with an uzi in his back
there’s a man in a van with plans to ram it in a crowd and
another at a concert with a plan to end it loud
today’s the day we should have made it right
but instead we’re planning funerals for another group of lives
another group of people who were looking to the sky
another group of innocents who thought they wouldn’t fly so
soon, too late, move it, coming through
hear the screams of the folks who were just like you
see the face of the dammed with the malice to challenge her
see the blood on the hood of the newly red challenger
[chorus]
everywhere i go i hear the news
all distorted with the people’s views
i try to block it out go on my way
i just wanna live my life today
they say relax, there’s nothing we can do
so take it easy, just enjoy the view
you never know when it could fade away
could last forever it could end today
[verse]
put the pedal to the metal hear the medley of
metal mangling many making mincemeat of the men
and the many friends affected as they try to make amends with the
tragic loss of those who loved them as they met their ends
every bullet in makes the bulletin full of faces
famous for facing fights only a coward could win
kept in the dark every day and every night until it’s time to
light the cage and let the match begin
in one corner we got sir john doe with a
bit of an edge in the form of a lovely -rs-nal of
bullets, bombs, molotovs and knives and gas and grenades
and just for good measure a vest ensuring he’s safe
and in the other corner we got little timmy who
isn’t even old enough to know of vimy ridge
and the circ-mstances one would expect to meet a painful end
and not in the cl-ssroom hiding in fear with his friends
[chorus]
everywhere i go i hear the news
all distorted with the people’s views
i try to block it out go on my way
i just wanna live my life today
they say relax, there’s nothing we can do
so take it easy, just enjoy the view
you never know when it could fade away
could last forever or it could end today
[verse]
be it jacksonville, columbine, parkland and vegas let’s take a look at
charlottesville, sutherland springs, aurora, pulse and sandy hook and
paris and manchester, nice and oklahoma paranoid in
boston and new york and london and if you want anymore than
wait a few, see the news, the outpouring love and sympathy from
twitter and facebook you might as well just go and pray for me cause
we’re all in danger but not every stranger’s unstable
there might not be a tomorrow so go do what you’re able
today is the day that we have to live our lives
even with nothing left for us there’s a lot to sacrifice
we’re gonna pull together and we’re gonna make it through
there’s a lot of sh-t behind us but a lot of sh-t to do
the danger ratio’s only a thousand to one
and for every k!ller there’s a million more its worth to love
maybe it’s sappy and maybe the happy are few
but i’ll take a chance on the chance that tomorrow will bloom
[chorus]
everywhere i go i hear the news
all distorted with the people’s views
i try to block it out go on my way
i just wanna live my life today
they say relax, there’s nothing we can do
so take it easy, just enjoy the view
you never know when it could fade away
could last forever or it could end today
