Underneath the forest floor
A face without a name
Waiting by the riverside
Soaking up the rain
Searching for a vital sign
Watching for a change
A movement much too small to see
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
These people once were human beings
Now they play them on TV
Victims once or twice removed
Selling misery
You cannot turn back the clock
No time to be afraid
It's difficult to get involved
When it happens everyday
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
We talk about the latest crime
Like we talk about the weather
Relate details that we've heard
When we are together
Underneath the forest floor
In a shallow grave
No surprises anymore
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
It happens everyday
