Who Are They To Say

hey doc give it to me straight you'd be suprised what I can take no candy coated words surrounding terms I've never heard you use to scare off all the interns... I'm so sorry for all their inquiries they think are so necessary for you to answer immediately who are they to say? asking you about him talking about when when when why don't they mind their own business? Why don't they get out of your face? you'll never let them see him in this fragile state get them all away They ask how is he but they're too busy to talk right now says their bodies half turned so you lie through your teeth tell em he seems to be turning around and they're too smart to learn so they agree happy to move on they say they want the truth but they only want the good news and don't get it otherwise says the confusion in their eyes only want the positive while you're left to live as they can walk away "what a wonderful day" who are they to say? "I understand" dumbest words ever said all I know is nobody knows nobody ever truly understands I'm so sorry yeah he's out there that monster and he plays dirty and I'm sorry it had to come to this we'll beat him with our fists for what he's done to our parents and what he's done to us as we had to watch with our wrists locked why does it have to hurt so? why does it have to hurt so? when God lets us I'll beat the monster with my own fists I'll beat him for me I'll beat him for you if you need or better than I'll hold you together so you can
