lyrics

let the headlines read today,
child killed by runaway taxi: driver flees the scene.
yeah, he flees the scene.
but let the headlines really mean
are you a vigilante
or do you indulge in tragedy?
as your eyes scour the page
and you look into the frame of lens that caught
the morbidity of that sombre scene
are you looking for escape
or to live vicariously through the shocked gaze
of the spectators in the streets?

our eyes like keyholes on thresholds we just can't cross;
watched and watching, we long for crowded rooms
to placate the loss.

we were there the night the princess di’ed
we watched camus fade away
and i swear we’ve never felt so alive
as when they brought out the body bags.
