lyrics

When will you be gone?
You’ve outstayed your welcome
I didn’t see the part where we were meant to be falling apart
Under your reckless spell
Now who decided we can’t be well

The phone rings
Panic sets in,
preparing my ears for the words

When will we be free?
I love you but I hate to see
you in pain, if I could take it away I would, I would

Now who decided we can’t be well?
Let’s show em all, all the ones that think they can tell
They think they know, but we must show
that we can get over this
Let’s show em all what we know

Let’s go against the odds we’ve been set
They haven’t beaten us yet

But when will we be free?
I love you but I hate to see
you in pain, if I could take it away I would, I would, I would, I would

When will we be free?
I love you and I hate to see
you in pain, if I could take it away I would, I would, I would, I would
