On my tv, violent actions race across my screen 
A world of hate staring at the rise in murder rate 
I can't believe what we've become 
Is all hope lost to everyone? 
A bettered wife waits for us to hear 
Her screams tonight 
A child of war wonders what we're all fighting for 
I look and think how can this be? 
What causes all our suffering? 
Eyes wide open we can't see 
I can't understand it's out of hand 
To me we're all just killing time 
Killing time 
Killing time - we're running our lives 
Religious right-is buying up guns for 
A hell of a fight 
Another victim lies in pain 
A serial killer waits for fame 
Have we all gone insane? 
I can't understand it's out of hand 
To me we're all just killing time 
Killing time 
I can't believ There's got to be 
Some way to break through 
I think that I - will have to try - I'll lose my mind 
We're all killing time 
Why?
