Make it just enough
Running of the gauntlet
Making you so tough
Why'd you push the boundaries
and cause yourself this pain?
Why'd you leave so quietly
and stand out in the rain?
They gave you time
They gave you space
But it's never quite enough
They gave you everything they had
And still you treat them rough
They all reach out their hands for you
and cradle you with care
But you rally and rail against them
and tell them they don't care
They gave you everything they had
time and love and space
but you laughed and spat and kicked up dust
You threw it in their face
