Fool

While you weren't looking While you were away I climbed upon this mountain To become the man I am today You barely even noticed The shape of your disgrace I barely can remember The look of your face You would have let me drown You would have let me down Oh what a useless fool A useless fool you turned out to be You cried yourself to sleep at night While I layed awake I gave you everything I had And all you did was take Do you remember The way we used to fight? I still hear the echos When I turn out the light You would have let me drown You would have let me down Oh what a useless fool A useless fool you turned out to be You think your so righteous You think your so grand I see you in the mirror Where a half-wit child stands You say you want to meet me To learn the things I knew So take this message in a bottle That I'm sending out to you You would have let me drown You would have let me down Oh what a useless fool What a useless fool you turned out to be
