(Hook)
I'm at a loss for words
And my heart, it hurts
I'm at a loss for words
And my heart it, hurts
(Verse 1)
Things goin' on in this world: so absurd
Mr. President tell me, what's the word?
Sellin' Ammunition to the mentally ill
Just to make a penny while innocent get killed
Turn on the news and I heard them sounds
From the 32nd floor, gunshots rainin' down
All those lives lost, what a pitty
Just tryna have a good time down in sin city
This ain't the first occasion, but I hope it's the last
Kinder-gardeners can feel safe goin' to class
Wanna walk down the street, not look behind my back
As a MAC rip through a venue fully packed and blast...
(Chorus)
This one's for Columbine, this one for Paris
And one for all the lives lost in Las Vegas
This for for Cali and for Miami
This one for London and no I'm not done
This one for Iraq, Yemen, and Saudi
And for Syria and those murdered babies
'Member Africa and for Hiroshima
Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center
For Ci-cago and Jerusalem-
Come on people put down the guns!
This ones for everyone who has lost someone
Who cannot be brought back with words
(Hook)
I'm at a loss for words
And my heart, it hurts
I'm at a loss for words
And my heart it, hurts
(Ahhhhhhhhh)
(Verse 2)
I wanna know in their heads what is going on
Too many situations to fit in one song
Wanna have a good time with my friends in the club
Without talk 'bout gettin' shot while I'm tryna make love
(So many) So many now with the man up above
While we're all left to clean up the blood
Children left with no parents
Parents left with no children
And when you really break it down
It's all for no good reason
I don't got all the answers, so tell me who does
All i really know is we really need love
I don't got all the answers, so tell me who does
All i really know is we really need love
(Chorus)
This one's for Columbine, this one for Paris
And one for all the lives lost in Las Vegas
This for for Cali and for Miami
This one for London and no I'm not done
This one for Iraq, Yemen, and Saudi
And for Syria and those murdered babies
'Member Africa and for Hiroshima
Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center
For Ci-cago and Jerusalem-
Come on people put down the guns!
This ones for everyone who has lost someone
Who cannot be brought back with words
(Verse 3)
Lives of the land from sea to sea
We all share the same blood when there's no need to bleed
At the hands of another man
But I understand
If its self defense
But there will be no reason to defend
If we can all live as one and join hands
(Hook)
I'm at a loss for words
And my heart, it hurts
I'm at a loss for words
And my heart it, hurts
It's an awakened view of a simple truth. We are all in pain, but we too often bring it to our own existence.
