What right do you have to be cynical? |
|
What right do you have to be here at all? |
|
Were you pushing us aside |
|
When you went away to fight? |
|
Were you eating from your hands? |
|
Were the bad guys in command? |
|
Cause you always seem to pass |
|
When the hard questions are asked |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
|
|
What right do you have to be missing me? |
|
What right do you have to be thanking me? |
|
Is the number on your back |
|
Just to put us in our place? |
|
Will we ever be addressed? |
|
Will the surface ever crack? |
|
Cause you always seem to to laugh |
|
When the sad questions are asked |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
|
|
What right do you have to be miserable? |
|
What right do you have to be sad at all? |
|
Are you aching from the past? |
|
Cause it hurts to feel like that |
|
Were you building a defense |
|
While the others built attack? |
|
Cause you always seemed detached |
|
When all these questions are asked |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
|
|
What right do you have to be cynical? |
|
What right do you have to be here at all? |
|
Were you pushing us aside |
|
When you went away to fight? |
|
Were you eating from your hands? |
|
Were the bad guys in command? |
|
Cause you always seem to pass |
|
When the hard questions are asked |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
Tell me how long it will last |
|
|
|
Do you need to know the score? |
|
Cause it's knocking at your door |
|
Will the strongest stand again |
|
Pushing the weakest to the floor? |
|
Cause you always seem to cry |
|
When the questions pass you by |
|
And all you ask is why |
|
And all you ask is why. |
