Breaking News
[Verse 1]
When you find yourself alone counting chaos on the phone
Trading stories from the headlines
In a culture fed on fear where they claim the end is near
It seems hard to keep a clear mind

[Chorus]
This is the breaking news
You really don't lose by trusting your neighbor
Hope is not fading away
Despite what they say in all of the papers

[Verse 2]
Twenty soldiers killed today, forty creeps that got away
It's frontpage fascination
But I saw a mom and child picking daisies with a smile
Was it my imagination?

[Chorus]
This is the breaking news
You really don't lose by trusting your neighbor
Hope is not fading away
Despite what they say in all of the papers

[Interlude: News montage]
[Bridge]
Turn off the evening news
It is nothing but pollution
Reclaim your right to choose
And find your own solution
'Cause this is the breaking news

[Chorus]
This is the breaking news
You really don't lose by trusting your neighbor
Hope is not fading away
Despite what they say in all of the papers
This is the breaking news
You really don't lose by trusting your neighbor
Hope is not fading away
Despite what they say in all of the papers
