I know you and you know me And I ain't got the time Or the sympathy 'Cause I know what you are And I know what I'm not So for my sake of sanity It's better forgot That you're wasting my time You said you'd be a friend Well all you've been is afraid You said you'd be my rock well show me how that rock gets made 'Cause I think that you're scared 'Cause you know that I might be That single thing you need A truth in possibilities Have you suffered the cost? Or are you wasting my time?

Jack Rose 02:51
Jack Rose wanted a dynasty He wanted something to protect When in the end he's a middleman When in the end he's got nothing left Get it off, get it off, get it off Get it off, get it off your chest The name on the paper's not the same as the test Oh Jack Rose, I think there's something Everyone else knows about you Jack Rose wanted a legacy He wanted something to protect Nothing above him and nothing below Yeah in the end he's got nothing left He says his prayers and goes to bed At night and says he'll be a king But I know him and you know him Jack your rattle's not so loud That I could find you in a crowd But I know him and you know him He says Daddy where've you gone And I don't know how to respond 'Cause I know him and you know him He says Daddy where've you gone And I don't know how to respond 'Cause I know him and you know him Get it off, get it off, get it off Get it off, get it off your chest The name on the paper's not the same as the test Oh Jack Rose, I think there's something Everyone else knows about you

Spending the dollar to fall on the dime Searching for all the time That we wasted all of our lives When the Midas touch of your greenest thumb Defaults into an alternate state Will you bend or will you break I don't want to be the one Hang your shackles on the wall They won't support you when you fall It's a Croesus Curse You check your wallet I'll check my watch Searching for all the time That we wasted all of our lives Does the absence of riches enrich your health Or is it in fact the wealth Of the absence itself that helps I don't know why you're frightened
