Songtekst
Every day I wake and
Everything is broken
Turnin' off my phone
Just to get out of bed
Get home every evenin'
And history's repeatin'
Turnin' off my phone
Cause it's hurtin' my chest
Hey
And heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah
But what can I do
I can't see the use in me cryin'
If I'm not even tryna make the change I wanna see
I can't sit and hope
I can't just sit and pray that
I can find the love
When all I see is pain
Fallin' to my knees
And though I do believe
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah, oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach
All I hear is voices
Everybody's talkin'
Nothin' real is happenin'
Ccause nothing is new
Now, when all this tragic
And I just feel sedated
Why do I feel numb
Is that all I can do
Yeah
And heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah (Uh)
But I'm only human
I can't see the use in me cryin'
If I'm not even tryna make the change I wanna see
I can't sit and hope
I can't just sit and pray that
I can find the love
When all I see is pain
I'm fallin' to my knees
And though I do believe (I do believe)
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah, oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach
And heaven knows I'm not helpless
But what can I do, yeah
Can't see the use in me cryin'
If I'm not even tryna make the change I wanna see
I can't sit and hope
I can't just sit and pray that
I can find the love
When all I see is pain
I try to do the things
I say that I believe (I do believe)
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah, oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Woah, oh
I can't just preach, baby, preach
Fallin' to my knees
And though I do believe
I can't just preach, baby, preach
