[Verse 1]
We carried you in our arms
On Independence Day
And now you throw us all aside
And put us on our way
Oh what daughter beneath the sun
Would treat a father so
To wait upon him hand and foot
Yet always answer, “No?”
[Chorus]
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Why I'm always the one who must be the thief?
Come to me now, you know
We're so alone
And life is brief
[Verse 2]
We pointed out the way for you to go
We scratched your name in sand
Though you just thought it was nothing more
Than a place for you to stand
Now, I want you to know that while you were watched
Discover no one was true
That I myself I really thought
It was a childish thing to do
[Chorus]
Tears of rage, tears of grief
Why I'm always the one who must be the thief?
Come to me now, you know
We’re so alone
And life is brief
