When you said you wanted to leave
I must admit I didn't know what you meant
Till I saw the ambulance
There were signs that I should've seen
Some endless refrain that made you scream
Out in the night it's no accident
You're overworked and underpaid
You haven't slept for days
You who would not wait for a sign from God
To tell us that we're wrong
Now some man who never knew you at all
He's quoting clichés inside a hall
So I stand loudly and say
How you never felt loved and they're all fake
And a jump is no accident
You're overworked and underpaid
You haven't slept for days
You who would not wait for a sign from God
To tell us that we're wrong
A minor moves a major thing when you've hardly slept for days
You who would not wait for the son of God
To tell us that we're wrong
