Unfinished
I've been to the wall
But you've got it all
So I wouldn't expect
You to respect me
'Cause you've got it all
They told me I'd fail
I'd be a boat without a sail
Well, I don't think about it
But I know you do
I don't expect much
I wish you were here
If you'd just come down
And join me in fear
Then maybe my frown
Would change
Do you think you can tell
Freedom from a cell?
Living high to living dumb?
Dying cold or living numb?
I don't think you could
High up in your cloud
They'd never allow
Me to join you, no they wouldn't
I wouldn't try, I know I couldn't
I'll just exist
