Sitting Duck

 I read the morning paper, someone had just died
 In big bold letters so it comes as no surprise
 I'm looking at a story 'bout violence,
 A word from a lawyer in his defence
 This time we got the jury by the throat
 I turn the television on to get away
 A quick reminder that we have to follow every word they say
 Learned another lesson in history,
 Written like a murder and mystery
 To me it's just another way of disguising the past
 Fear is not the way to make it work and be as one
 It's too late the damage has been done
 So fly your flag and make your statements, hold on to your pride
 And live your life for others that have died
 This is the end of what we know, where do we go?
 Don't look for solace in some shallow ignorant late night talk show
 Think about your problems every now and then
 Discover that we're limited in the end
 Sometimes you've got to close your eyes start thinking for yourself
