"Accomplished Man" - Free Download |
Accomplished Man
You called the shots, look what you got
You’re what you are; I’m what you’re not
Firm as a rock you took your stand
Everyone bowed to the Great Man
Behind your walls lined with awards
You took me down, you took me hard
And never once in all that time
Did you look down deep into my eyes
And if you tried, that was hard to see
And if you loved me, well that’s hard to believe
‘Cause it was all about you, and what I could do
To fit the picture
Well I don’t fit the picture picture; I don’t fit your picture
What you gonna do?
You grabbed your fortune, served your boards
You laughed out loud and you locked our doors
You straightened up your formal suits
You brushed right past the painful truths
You held your secrets tight in hand
And showed the world an Accomplished Man
That public face met all demands
But where was love in all your plans?
And if you tried, that was hard to see
And if you loved me, well that’s hard to believe
‘Cause it was all about you, and what I could do
To fit the picture
Well I don’t fit the picture; I don’t fit your picture
What you gonna do?
And why? Tell me for what?
There’s nothing left now but all that money and all this hurt
That I won’t feel
‘Cause I will not believe that the fault here falls to me
But I’m left with the pieces
Accomplishment? Accomplished Man?
Accomplish this.
Love me. Love me. Love me.
