Headlines
by Shannon LaBrie

Album: Just Be Honest

Verse ONE
Before the headlines came
I wasn't listening
I was to engaged
In the media game
When the headlines came
The TV was outraged
So of course I felt the same
But I cared to late

Chorus
Why do we wait till loves in fashion
We sit till we're told to stand
Why do we wait for one good headline
Before we'll give a damn

Verse TWO
I heard an actor say
You should start giving
I heard a rock star sing
"We are the world"
It made me feel so brave
like we are a family
But when the feelings fade
All the hurt remains

Bridge
A generation can't be founded
On the waves of trendy kindness
We need to find our intuition
Take the harder road
That's where compassion grows
