Turn the Tables

I am not broken
You have no right to try to fix
What does not need changing

I’ve watched from the sidelines
I’ve waited a lifetime for my turn
I’ve wandered on my own
I’ve wanted so much more than you offer
So where do you play in?
And what makes you say I am unable?
When will you learn?
And how do I turn the tables?

You are not listening
I have no patience to sit and wait for you
To figure this all out

I’ve watched from the sidelines
I’ve waited a lifetime for my turn
I’ve wandered on my own
I’ve wanted so much more than you offer
So where do you play in?
And what makes you say I am unable?
When will you learn?
And how do I turn the tables?

I am not fighting
’cause you have no leg to stand upon
To be the one to tell me I’m wrong

I’ve watched from the sidelines
I’ve waited a lifetime for my turn
I’ve wandered on my own
I’ve wanted so much more than you offer
So where do you play in?
And what makes you say I am unable?
When will you learn?
And how do I turn the tables?
When will I learn?
And how do you plan to turn the tables?
When will we learn?
There’s no need to turn the tables
