lyrics

Shots rang out
We heard it from the couch
Another day, another dead
Another madman
In another schoolyard
I heard that he was sick in the head

So you ask for luck for your friends and your family
Prayers for rain to wash all your sins away
Mercy for the fallen and their kin
We fold our hands in toward the sky
They say it's only time to grieve
But if we're always grieving when is right
But our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time
If you're looking for more, better get in line

This normal
Hasn't been new
Since 1992 and even then new was no excuse
But now the facts
Are piling up in stacks
Like so many bodies in the pews

So you talk about it with your friends and your family
But Uncle Johnny heard from Sean Hannity
That he better not believe the news
When they say we are a nation
With an unyielding correlation of corpses to bullets used
We dig our heels in and pick a side
What else could we do
When they always say our hands are tied
But our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time
If you're looking for action, better get off the party line

Shots rang out
We heard it north and south and then nothing
And then nothing
Shots rang out
And then nothing, and then nothing
And then nothing, and then nothing

Don't you know that we care deeply for your friends and your family
But luck is all they get, if they want some sanity
That's too bad baby
We gotta bear this right
But our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult
Our thoughts and prayers and our thoughts and prayers
Our thoughts and prayers and our thoughts and prayers
