LYRICS 

The flags are at half-mast again                      

They’re talking on TV                                 

Homegrown or of foreign lands

Another Tragedy 

 

AK-47s and     

Glocks and Magazines 

Websites that hold diagrams

For homemade IEDs  

                                                                                                                                                              

The President will talk about

First Responders’ bravery 

And promise retribution and 

Comfort families 

 

The flags are at half-mast again              

They’re talking on TV

Everyone recites the lines                                     

Of every agency                   

                               

Red lights flashing sirens of        

Swat teams bomb squads EMTs

And what’s left of concepts of

Homeland Security                                                           

                                                                                                                             

The experts they will talk about                         

Motives access weaponry        

And show photographs and videos of

Another tragedy 

                                                                

Flowers vigils candle light                                              

Woven into tapestries 

Another town square shattered by 

The toll of tragedy              

Another tragedy                                                                                                                                                                                                           

                                                                                                         

The flags are at half-mast again   

They’re talking on TV 

Talk and Prayers and Talk and Prayers

Another tragedy                             

Another tragedy                            

Hmmm...
