I'm not supposed to get angry

You're not supposed to get mad

I'm not supposed to keep saying

You're just like your dad.

I'm not supposed to be waiting

Watching the hands on the clock

I'm not supposed to stay up 'til

The key turns in the lock

What am I supposed to do

I would do nothing without you

And how am I supposed to know

I've never been this way before

Oh no...

I'm not supposed to be sitting

Here, at the foot of your bed

Watching you while you are sleeping

And measuring each steady breath

And I'm not supposed to be wakened

Here in the deep of the night

Praying that you'll find your way

Through the trials of life
