We
S.H.E Lyrics

Cover up your eyes
Close yourself off from reality

And put your fingers in your ears
Refuse to listen to what is being said

We're about to say some shit
We are going to speak some uncomfortable truths

That you don't wanna hear
That you are too scared to confront

There's too many kids out there
There are too many children in society

Who never stay changed
Who never grow or develop properly

Who say some basic truth
Who speak the bare minimum of what they feel

Their mom and dad don't understand
Their parents fail to connect with them

All we want
Our only desire

Is only to be wanted
Is to be valued and included

And no one's home
There is no one around to care

And the kids are going crazy
Children are feeling neglected and abandoned

Now while we're screaming for attention
We are calling out for help

Try and point the finger
Blame someone else for the problem

While your running from the man
While you are avoiding accountability

Blame it on the music
Say music is causing the kids' behavior

Or the movies and the games
Say other media is influencing them

Turning up the volume
Increasing the level of stimulation

So that you can hear the sound
So you can escape the silence of the home

Cause what's a kid supposed to do
How are they meant to cope

When no one is around
When there is no one to guide them

It's just a matter of attention
The problem is lack of care and focus

It's too late for intervention
The situation can no longer be rectified

Never give back what you lost
You cannot undo what has been done

Cause we spend too much time together
The solution is to spend more time alone

But you're always on a mission
You are always distracted by other responsibilities

And you're always on the go
You are too busy to prioritize your family

So you leave the kids at home again
You neglect your children yet again

With someone you don't know
You leave your children with an unfamiliar caregiver

You were never loved
You were never shown affection

You had a choice of what to be
You had the opportunity to choose your path in life

Your spent all your money
You spent all your resources

Trying to cover your mistakes
Trying to hide your faults and errors

Yeah, the kids are going crazy right now
Children are feeling overwhelmed and out of control

And that's all we want
Our ultimate goal

No one's home
There is a lack of guidance and support

And the kids are going crazy now
Children are becoming uncontrollable

While we're screaming for attention
We are crying out for help
