Oh, wish I knew where you'll go
Oh, you're making plans, I know
So do just as you have to do
But ask when you get there
Would I have pledged my life? I do
Who's going to drive away the loneliness?
Who's going to justify the ugliness?
Who's going to give us our inheritance?
Who's going to say we once were innocent?
Oh, decisions made too fast
Seem to be the ones that last
So tell me life is short
And don't explain a thing
I will never ask you more
Now my friends are asking if I got what I was wanting
Such a high ranked jerk since moving out of town
Handing down the sky when what they wanted was my shoulder
No one's got that kind of patience when you're down
One day you 'll ask me why I hang around
Oh please, stay the way I hate you, stay the way I hate you, can't you?
Who's going to drive away the loneliness?
Who's going to justify the ugliness?
Who's going to give us our inheritance?
Who's going to say we once were innocent?
Who's going to nullify the carelessness?
Who's going to finance our deliverance?
Who's going to have a little sympathy?
Who's going to say you can't do this to me?
