I hear the news, I read the paper There's no choice, it fills your senses I share the hurt, I share the heart-break It comes each day, the news is so relentless My heart goes searching for a place to hide I hear a voice of warning down inside Apathy alert I hear a voice inside shouting to my heart Apathy alert It's time to do what's right It's time for me to do my part Broken dreams and breaking hearts Every place you look, but who can change it What can I do all by myself I'm not a king and I'm no prophet I hear a voice of warning down inside Breaking the silence, breaking thru the ice Apathy alert I hear a voice inside shouting to my heart Apathy alert It's time to do what's right It's time for me to do my part
