Story Behind The Song
Dealing with the emotions of being in a family who say they love you yet cannot accept you for the person that you are. Their own anger, fears and resentments are directed towards the very people that they say they love. Any feelings of true love are clouded by these other emotions which ultimately leads to the rejection of those that they love.
Song Description
A plea for love that is real and can be felt. Living with the confusion of family who say they love you, yet their actions contradict this.

Give Me The News
Ask no questions
I?ll tell no lies
Can only be myself
So why look so surprised?
There are no reasons
That I can see
You?ve got it all worked out
But what is left for me?
So give me the news, give me the news
I long to hear, I long to hear
Give me the news, give me the news
I long to feel, your love is real
You say you love me
It never shows
How could I feel it?
It?s something you don?t know
Oh it?s so confusing
It?s so unclear
When all I get are words
Of anger, hate and fear
So give me the news, give me the news
I long to hear, I long to hear
Give me the news, give me the news
I long to feel, your love is real
I?ve loved you always
Can?t you see?
Can?t you just love me
For being me?
Why fear true feelings
If they are there
Stand up and shout it out
Choose true love if you dare
You?ll find it easy
Once you begin
Why live your life in fear?
True love will always win
So give me the news, give me the news
I long to hear, I long to hear
Give me the news, give me the news
I long to feel, your love is real
