Lyrics

Old man, can you picture
A world without you in it?
Did you ever have a minute
For anything but yourself?
You always put me down
And my father, too,
But now it won't be long
Before you're gone
The things you said of me
Well, they were probably true
I hadn't much to defend
From your withering view
What argument would make you see
That yours was hypocrisy?
What's left to say?
You'd never listen anyway
Now when it's all over, am I petty
To cling to a lifetime of your contempt?
But what's different? You were always mortal
You were never exempt
Yes I'm petty cuz I was as thoughtless and cruel
My lease isn't long
I'm a fool
Was your egotism so different
From my self-loathing life, ill-spent?
Perhaps I've become like you
In my failure to see what I do
But the whole thing's foolish
For you'll never think of me,
It's long past time
For me to let it be
