Today and tomor- row, we shudder, we grieve. The next day we talk about all the rage, the rancor, among our leaders, in traffic, in our homes, everywhere - and we talk about violence in the entertainment industry... and then admit we should be horrified but not surprised. And the next day, promise ourselves we will change, and prove our carols about "peace on earth" aren't just blowing smoke.

Newtown - today, tomorrow, the next day
Today and tomor- row, we shudder, we grieve. The next day we talk about all the rage, the rancor, among our leaders, in traffic, in our homes, everywhere - and we talk about violence in the entertainment industry... and then admit we should be horrified but not surprised. And the next day, promise ourselves we will change, and prove our carols about "peace on earth" aren't just blowing smoke.
