lyrics

Bought and sold
You've grown so old.
Do you remember me?
What about your family?

Green to gold
You've stooped so low.
I bet you don't remember me
And I know you don't know what these means

But that's fine
Take your time
I never know, these things that are on my mind
My mind, my mind, oh the same damn time

But that's your fault for
Digging up holes on another plot
For sticking your nose in the world at large
Did you feel so in charge?
Just like the fool who can't remember how he got his scars

Oh but you know,
Remember how special you are?
Oh no no no no

The time is up
Open your eyes
It's a long way up
But don't be surprised
When it's not enough
I think that's not never enough

The time is up
Open your eyes
It's a long way up
But don't be surprised
When it's not enough
I think that's not never enough
No it's never enough

But now you feel so different
And you're scared you missed it
Because the cake don't taste the way it did last year
And you wonder why the hell you even got here
Oh oh oh

The time is up
Open your eyes
It's a long way up
But don't be surprised
When it's not enough
I think that's not never enough
No it's never enough
(x2)

Yeah but what's the point in
Feeling so proud when it's all done
Take a look around and
it's just you and all those things you haven't had before
It's everything you've ever wanted and more
But not for long.
