I Am The News Lyrics - Ocean Colour Scene

I am the news, and I'll say no more 

I am the stranger at your door 

I am the deep beneath the sea 

The threat of flood, tide rising 

I am the banks bearing refugees 

Always a 'cause, not solution 

A constant fear or a fleeting joy 

Your only friend who needs using 

I am the news, and I'm in your face 

And I'll take my profit from your faith 

I am the face beneath the mask 

The catalyst explosions 

I am the crop, bearing crippled genes 

I am an inside connection 

A constant friend on a changing screen 

Your history and direction 

Be my best friend 

Don't give us the truth 

I need the news again 

I am the news, and I'm every spin 

I am what is and what's not in 

I am the trump card, I'm the ace 

I am the news, and I'm in your face 

I am the ocean's biggest roar 

I am the smallest twist of fate 

I am the ending of a play 

I am the opening curtain 

I am the crop, bearing crippled genes 

I am an inside connection 

A constant friend on a changing screen 

Your history and direction 

Be my best friend 

Don't give us the truth 

I need the news again
