Lyrics

Woke up this morning I was feeling good

Woke up feeling positive and in a good mood.

Turned up the radio I understood

After listening to the radio, gained understanding or insight.

Things are changing like never before

Significant changes are happening unlike any time before.

Then I go back to bed and close the door

Retreating from the changes by going back to bed and isolating oneself.


It would be laughable if it wasn't sad

The situation would be comical if it weren't so sorrowful.

Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad

Reiteration that the situation is ironic and sorrowful.


Picked up my cell phone and called some friends

Reached out to friends via phone for support.

They tried to tell me that it's not the end

Friends tried to reassure that it's not the end of things.

I still remember how it used to be

Remembering how things used to be in the past.

How did this happen to you and me

Questioning how the current situation unfolded for both the singer and others.


It would be laughable if it wasn't sad

Reaffirming that the situation would be humorous if it weren't so disheartening.

Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad

Reiteration that the situation is ironic and disheartening.


Let's all be honest, it's going to hell

Acknowledgment that things are deteriorating rapidly.

But not forever

Belief that this decline won't last forever.

Don't be afraid, don't lose your faith

Encouragement to not succumb to fear and maintain faith.

We need to come together

Advocating for unity and coming together in such difficult times.


They think they're different, even I can see

Observation that people perceive themselves as different despite the universal need for peace and love.

It's peace and loving for you and for me

Stressing the necessity of peace and love for everyone.


It would be laughable if it wasn't sad

Reaffirmation that the situation would be funny if it weren't so distressing.

Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad

Reiteration that the situation is ironic and distressing.


Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad
