It's Happening Right Here

Sometimes it's hard to see it If you don't know what you're looking for It's easier believin' It don't happen in a town like yours Cause church bells ring on Sunday There's nine to fives and baseball games And if no one talks about it Then no one has to say It's happening right here It's happening right now Yeah once you turn the light on You can't just turn it out It's behind the door Just up the street Down the hall On a cellphone screen It's a wake up call for us all in the mirror It's happening right here It's a mom and dad's worst nightmare They don't ever wake up from All the sleepless nights The how's and why's And what we could have done's It's an all too real conversation We don't wanna have too late We can start to make a difference By standing up to say It's happening right here It's happening right now Yeah once you turn the light on You can't just turn it out It's behind the door Just up the street Down the hall On a cellphone screen It's a wake up call for us all in the mirror It's happening right here Oh right here Cause power wins when silence breaks So for every son and daughters sake A few simple words just might save a life So we gotta talk We gotta try We gotta fight Cause it's happening right here It's happening right now Yeah once we turn the light on We can drive the darkness out It's behind the door Up the street Down the hall On a cellphone screen It's a wake up call for us all in the mirror It's happening right here It's happening right here
