lyrics

What you don't get
Is how we all feel
Now that we're scared
Now we're upset
We drew a line in the sand
A boundary
We couldn't stand
Watching you fall
Slowly as hell
What you don't get.

Fall down standing up again
Drove to treatment
with your hands out.

What you don't get
How it could be
If you gave it up
If you became free
From the weight of it all
From every day
Waking up
In the middle of the night
What you don't get.

How could you be so insincere?
I swear to God
it's like looking in the mirror.

Are you still counting time?
Did you raise your hand?
Is this your life or mine?

You think she has a chance?
What are the odds of it?
Can we hope for change?
At this point in her life?
What's our part in this thing?
Aren't you so busy like I am?
And how does it work?
Will it work for her?
Can we pick up the pace?
And what is the plan?

That's what you don't get.
