It's Happening Right Here (Music from the Original Documentary)

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
