[Intro]
Yeah, oh-oh
[Verse 1]
I know life is every minute
That's why I'm gonna push it to the limit
Drivin' slow, the time is ticking
And this love is gone for a minute
[Pre-Chorus]
One by one, yeah, one by one, man down
There's something going on in this town (Town)
Blue lights and sirens fightin' the violence
One by one, yeah, one by one, man down, oh-oh
[Chorus]
Scandals (oh), madness (yeah), I know
I can feel it in the day and night
Starin' at the unknown
Even if you laugh and cry, I only see your lonely eyes
Scandals, madness, I know
[Post-Chorus]
Can you see him on the floor with the dark eyes?
And the world is so cold when you sleep at night
Keep your eyes wide open and you'll be fine (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
Can you see him on the floor with the dark eyes?
And the world is so cold when you sleep at night
Keep your eyes wide open and you'll be fine (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
[Verse 2]
Everybody needs a vision (Oh)
Someone who can lead the way (Uh)
Live a hero, die a villain
And in the end love will find a way
[Pre-Chorus]
One by one, yeah, one by one, man down
There's something going on in this town (Town)
Blue lights and sirens fightin' the violence
One by one, yeah, one by one, man down, oh-oh
[Chorus]
Scandals (scandals), madness (madness), I know
I can feel it in the day and night
Starin' at the unknown
Even if you laugh and cry, I only see your lonely eyes
Scandals, madness, I know
[Post-Chorus]
Can you see him on the floor with the dark eyes?
And the world is so cold when you sleep at night
Keep your eyes wide open and you'll be fine (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
Can you see him on the floor with the dark eyes?
And the world is so cold when you sleep at night
Keep your eyes wide open and you'll be fine (Oh-oh, oh)

Not in a generation not in two generations but certainly not in my lifetime, have I seen the world erupting around me the way it is right now. This song is not about just documenting the facts as I see them but it also taps into our most basic of human instincts and that is hope for a better future....
