Preach
Lyrics
Every day I wake and Everything is broken Turning off my phone just to get out of bed Get home every evening And history's repeating Turning off my phone cuz it's hurting my chest And heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah But what can I do? I can't see the use in me crying If I'm not even trying to Make the change I wanna see I can't sit and hope, I Can't just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain Falling to my knees And though I do believe I can't just preach, baby, preach (Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can't just preach, baby, preach All I hear is voices Everybody's talking Nothing real is happening, 'Cause nothing is new Now when all is tragic And I just feel sedated Why do I feel numb? Is that all I can do? Yeah And heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah But I'm only human I can't see the use in me crying If I'm not even trying to Make the change I wanna see I can't sit and hope, I Can't just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain I'm falling to my knees And though I do believe I can't just preach, baby, preach (Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can't just preach, baby, preach And heaven knows I'm not helpless But what can I do? Can't see the use in me crying If I'm not even trying to Make the change I wanna see I can't sit and hope, I Can't just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain I try to do the things, I Say that I believe I can't just preach, baby, preach (Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can't just preach, baby, preach (Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can't just preach, baby, preach Falling to my knees And though I do believe I can't just preach, baby, preach Every day I wake and Everything is broken Turning off my phone just to get out of bed Get home every evening And history's repeating Turning off my phone cuz it's hurting my chest And heaven knows I'm not helpless, yeah But what can I do? I can't see the use in me crying If I'm not even trying to Make the change I wanna see I can't sit and hope, I Can't just sit and pray, that I can find a love, when All I see is pain Falling to my knees And though I do believe I can't just preach, baby, preach (Woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh) I can't just preach, baby, preach All I hear is voices Everybody's talking Nothing real is happening, 'Cause nothing is new Now when all is tragic And I just feel sedated Why do I feel numb?
