All I needed was a minute of your time
For you to understand that something could be mine
But you took everything and still demanded more
I saw the selfishness went to your very core
The hand of death was waving
You went and shook her hand
Then with your finger pointing
Said:
'Come meet your man'
You asked for money when they said my time was up
I gave you what I could but that wasn't enough
You screamed and shouted that it is no way to live
Well now I am living there is no way I can forgive
My wasted youth was just a child trying to run
The strangers you insulted helped me overcome
The life you put me through
The world you made me see
The way you turned the woes around
And landed them on me
You're still convinced, you're not the ones at fault
Nothing can be said to bring delusion to a halt
The make believe, the know it all
Fool no other than you
Leaving me with the regret
Of ever trying to get through
Your condecending attitude looks down on all
Seeming to think the world should bid your every call
Holding to everything with some perverse intent
Scrounging off everyone 'til pity's over spent
To lie with such consistency
Shows your awareness of the truth
The enforcement of denial
Are the strands that weave your noose
Now the years have made their mark, all compassion has desisted
I board the plane, I don't look back and wish you'd never existed
