Well I can''t blame the rain
for all of my pain
and I can''t blame the clouds
and I can''t blame the sky
or be jealous of the birds that
fly

does anybody hear me
does anybody hear me
because I don''t

because I lost my hearing long ago
from the media bombs going off in my living room
lies on the tv
lies in the movies
lies on the billboards
nobody tells the truth
I''m going deaf

does anybody hear me
does anybody hear
because I don''t

I''m tired of all the violence
we''ve lost lives enough
and I''m tired of all the nudity so much sex without love
and I''m tired of all the smokers blowing smoke in my face
and the same old boring models decorating every fashion page
I don''t trust the politicians
or the movie ratings board
and I''m tired of fighting all these inner and outer wars
I''ve got bullets in my head
I''ve got blood in my ears
and the world could drown from the truth that''s in my tears

does anybody hear me
does anybody hear
because I don''t because I. . .
