[00:10.52]I woke up in a modern world
[00:12.92]And there's nothing I can do
[00:15.48]While I read the latest, from the breaking
[00:18.19]Story on the news
[00:20.90]People swear they say it's fake
[00:23.40]And look up to our leader
[00:26.16]As he speaks from a mind so bleak
[00:28.53]He preys on his believers
[00:31.56]Everyone's bitter, pointing their fingers
[00:33.92]Seeing the worst in each other
[00:36.26]But people are not, their skin, or their God
[00:39.25]Or who they claim their lover
[00:42.08]I think that people are made so unequal
[00:44.47]Some are born good and some evil
[00:46.86]And so here I pray, for one single day
[00:49.77]We can live here peaceful
[00:52.16]The world is falling down
[00:54.72]And nothing ever changes
[00:57.41]1, 2, 3 as the shots ring out
[00:59.75]But nothing ever changes
[01:02.54]The world is falling down
[01:05.08]And nothing ever changes
[01:07.95]We're all part of a silent crowd
[01:10.29]'Cause nothing ever changes
[01:15.72]12 more killed at a local bar
[01:18.28]Some were only 21
[01:20.63]But the NRA has bills to pay and feeds us with more guns
[01:26.28]So we send our thoughts and prayers
[01:28.45]To those who lost their lives
[01:31.13]But the cycle stays and in a couple of days
[01:34.07]Bullets fly and a few more die
[01:36.77]I'm not a scholar, I'm not an expert but if you fight fire with fire
[01:41.75]I'm pretty sure, it only gets worse
[01:44.26]The flames burn even brighter
[01:47.16]I know that I'm not alone
[01:49.45]When I say I'm sick of the violence
[01:52.16]Voice our anger on our phones
[01:54.82]But in real life we're quiet (shhh)
[01:57.39]The world is falling down
[01:59.93]And nothing ever changes
[02:02.75]1, 2, 3 as the shots ring out
[02:05.14]But nothing ever changes
[02:07.88]The world is falling down
[02:09.83]And nothing ever changes
[02:13.02]We're all part of a silent crowd
[02:15.34]'Cause nothing ever changes
[02:21.10]I hope that when, I fast forward
[02:23.58]Twenty something years
[02:26.37]We no longer live our days in hatred or in fear
[02:31.32]And live to be, kind and free
[02:33.73]To do unto each other
[02:36.92]As you'd have 'em do, unto you
[02:39.11]United undercover
[02:41.59]The world is falling down
[02:43.91]And nothing ever changes
[02:47.03]1, 2, 3 as the shots ring out
[02:49.27]But nothing ever changes
[02:52.15]The world is falling down
[02:54.72]And nothing ever changes
[02:57.42]We're all part of a silent crowd
[02:59.98]'Cause nothing ever changes
[03:02.59]The world is falling down
[03:05.30]Nothing ever changes
[03:07.83]The world is falling down now
[03:10.56]Nothing ever changes
[03:12.96]The world is falling down
[03:15.79]Nothing ever changes
[03:18.32]The world is falling down now
[03:20.68]'Cause nothing ever changes
