I watched the flood on my TV today I couldn't say from where Just another flood on my TV I wasn't bothered, it was far away Worlds away from here From my family and me

 

But just for a second I could feel The safe and independent life of mine is not real Just for a second I could see That nothing is forever and nothing is for free

 

When will I go and make a change I've got the time and I let it waste I frown at people who don't care but I'm just the same I wanna make a difference - maybe some other day

 

A bomb went off not far from here tonight And now I'm wide-awake Tossing and turning in my bed A glass of Hennessey's sits by my side But with every sip I take These visions creep into my head

 

Just in this second I can see The lights go and bricks and ceilings tumbling on me Just in this second I can hear The steps of panicked neighbours, the sound of fear

 

When will I go and make a change I've got the time and I let it waste I frown at people who don't care but I'm just the same I wanna make a difference - maybe some other day

 

When will I go and make a change I've got the time and I let it waste I frown at people who don't care, but I'm just the same I wanna make a difference - maybe some other day
