"Turn Off The News" lyrics

Turn off the news
Won't you please
Say something
Put my mind at ease
Tell me lies
I don't care
Tell me what you think I need to hear

Inside my head
There is a fuse
It is soon to burn 'cause I cannot choose
The things I see
They stick to me
Linger on my eyelids as I sleep

So I don't want to fall in to the night
So won't you stay until the morning sunlight
Awakes to tie my shadow to the ground
So I don't have to bother
Bother, bother, bother

I used to run down every hill
Now I chase a shadow of that thrill
Another night is soon to come
And I don't want to fall I want to run
But it is flooding in my veins
And it is getting crowded in my brain
Come feel my heart
I think it's stopped
Won't you care to aim and have a shot

'Cause I don't want to fall into the night
So won't you stay until the morning sunlight
Awakes to tie my shadow to the ground
So I don't have to bother
Bother, bother, bother you

No you don't have to follow
Follow me, follow me, follow me down to
Where the water come to me carry me
Run to the sea to where the corners
Silently call on me carry me down to
Where the water
Run to me
Silently
Carry me down

Turn off the news
Won't you please
Say something
Put my mind at ease
The things I see
They stick to me
Linger on my eyelids as I sleep
