In Bretts own words:
“News From The Front is about AIDS, why aren’t we doing more for AIDS sufferers in the U.S. The ones at the front are the AIDS victims.”
[Verse 1]
Blood is a river
Flowing darkly amidst the tangled roots of a tall and shinin' city
Crazy flowing man tide migrations engorge the big ventricle of heartbroken America
So many heaven-hoping, hopeful groping breathers
All tap together quietly and desperately in unison
Hey, hey, hey, is anybody listenin'?
[Chorus]
News from the front
News from the front
We're livin' in troubled times
So many fighting for their lives
Why do the troops despise
The news from the front?
[Verse 2]
Ignorance is the root of fear
And fear is the kindling of anger
War is a bringer of shame
But never has the burden lain so heavily upon the victim
Rage and desolation, pain and loneliness
Is it all a bit alarmingly familiar?
Hey, hey, hey, silence is a killer
[Chorus]
News from the front
News from the front
Yeah, these are troubled times
How many more will have to die
Before the governors can't deny
The news from the front? Yeah!
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Break down the barriers, ally the carriers
What is your motivation?
Take a good look in the mirror
[Chorus]
News from the front
News from the front
So many fighting for their lives
How many more will have to die?
Why does the government decry
The news from the front?
