Lyrics

Verse 1


I, all I'm hearing is white noise
All I'm feeling is salt in the wound
I turn the corner, got knocked out
And the one holding the weight was you
I saw the one loss coming, but the others left me in shock
The mess and brokenness are surprising
But I'm surprised you haven't said it's enough


Chorus


So, who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else)
Who else, you (Who else, who)
Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else)
You're the one who calls the shots


Verse 2


I wanna wrestle 'til I feel blessed
Or at least until all this is remade
I know that you love me in my head
But the tightness in my chest has something to say


Chorus


Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else)
Who else, you (Who else, who)
Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else)
You're the one who calls the shots
Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else)
Who else, you (Who else, who)
Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else)
You're the one who calls the shots


Bridge


I don't wanna band-aid
It's so hard to even pray
I don't want you to go away
But I wish you would explain
I wish you would explain
Who else
Who else
Where do I go, but to the one I call the son?


Chorus


Yeah, who else am I supposed to be angry at?
Hey, who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else, who else)
Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else, who else)
Who else, you (Who else, who)
Who else am I supposed to be angry at? (Who else, who else)
You're the one who calls the shots

Meaning & Inspiration

The song gives language to faith that is wounded, angry, and still unwilling to walk away from God. Its questions do not try to tidy up grief. Instead, the lyric holds together the tension between knowing that God loves and feeling abandoned in the midst of loss. The reference to wrestling until blessed clearly recalls Jacob’s night-long struggle in Genesis 32.

The chorus turns anger into a form of prayer because God remains the one to whom the speaker can bring the complaint. That posture is close to the laments of the Psalms, where pain, protest, and trust often share the same prayer. The bridge’s confession that prayer is hard refuses an easy answer. Yet the final question, “Where do I go,” leaves the song oriented toward Christ even while explanation remains out of reach.
