I Want to Know (Deserve)

Do I have to want what I deserve?

Cause my father told me the world doesn't owe you anything

What if I want what I don't deserve?

For better or for worse?

Cause I want to know

What it means to deserve something

Who decides that?

Is it our punishment?

Or is it whatever

Your version of god is?

Cause I want to know

There's been a lot of talk lately about wrong and right

And my father told me the world doesn't owe you anything

All I know is that hurt people hurt the most

Cause I want to know

What it means to deserve something

Who decides that?

Is it our punishment?

Or is it whatever

Your version of god is?

Cause I want to know

Parked outside our house

Sobbing into the side of my seat-belt

Wishing life was a little more forgiving

That's when he said to me

"Daughter, no one deserves anything

And the world, well it owes you nothing"

Cause I want to know

What it means to deserve something

Who decides that?

Is it our punishment?

Or is it whatever

Your version of god is?

Cause I want to know

I want to know
