i won’t be a pawn.
we roughed it up when we were young.
i won’t say, so much for that,
what do you do when it is done?

cause i know we grow,
when its over.

i used to dream
with all the force of solyent green.
lazy geese and the weather warm.
oh my life of humidity.

but i know we grow,
when its over.

all that time
i spent walking behind.
i don't mind,
cause now i know.

they ran us out of town.
oh come on,
they cut us down,
raised the flag of the fealty,
oh the life of futility.

but i know we grow,
when its over.

all that time
you were walking the line.
i don't mind,
cause now i know.

we grow when its over,
we grow.
