What About Us

We are searchlights, we can see in the dark
We are rockets, pointed up at the stars

We are billions of beautiful hearts
And you sold us down the river too far

What about us?
What about all the times you said you had the answers?
What about us?
What about all the broken happy ever afters?

What about us?
What about all the plans that ended in disaster?
What about love? What about trust?
What about us?

We are problems that want to be solved
We are children that need to be loved

We were willing, we came when you called
But man, you fooled us, enough is enough, oh

What about us?
What about all the times you said you had the answers?
What about us?
What about all the broken happy ever afters?

Oh, what about us?
What about all the plans that ended in disaster?
Oh, what about love? What about trust?
What about us?
