I've seen your progress
Stamped out on a bill
You don't look hungry
Only more fat for th kill
Where is the time we spent
It seemed so real
Guess I was mistaken
I thought your world might be worth knowing
'Cause you take it like a man
No I can't conceal the wounds you've opened
Any more than I could understand
No matter how I try
I can't fault your success
Makers of their destiny
Must always deal so
Close to the vest
Take it before it's gone
And listen good
Just in case you've forgotten
I forced you up to keep from crawling
When you did not have a chance
I can't blame you for not recalling
Any more than I could understand
I knew the risk that I was taking
That I would not try again
I can't believe the life you're chasing
Any more than I could understand
