It pains me to see her
Disheartened by that power
With not much left I could do

I hear the calling
Of country in confusion
Without direction left unheard

I know, it's risky
But she's damn near perfect
Remove her crutches
Keep her from branching out

I want to protect them
But don't they know she's worth it
To bear a jagged road ahead?

For now, they're worried
I've too much faith within her
I hear them chanting...

“Who's really in control here?”
“Who's really in control here?”
“Who's really in control hеre?”
“Who's really in control herе?”
“Who's really in control here?”
“Who's really in control here?”
“Who's really in control here?”
“Who's really in control here?”

I hoped I never had to say
Your five friends are still in the way
Distractions only lead astray
I'm sorry there's no other way…

I'm sorry
I didn't want it to come down like this
I'm sorry
I'd rather have myself to blame
I'm sorry
I never wanted it to end like this
But if you were in my position
You'd do the same
I know that she'll forgive me...
I know that she'll forgive me...
I know that she'll forgive me...
I hope that she'll forgive me...
