Beneath The Wheel*
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the light of day
It’s no surprise to see you’re not the same
Your fingers they’re crooked to the bone,
Your fingers they’re crooked to the bone
I gave it up, I turned around the other way
And I was gone for so long while you stayed
I wanted you to be the one to know,
I wanted you to be the one to know
But who was I to say, who was I to say
It takes one to know one like you said
And what is there to do, what is there to do
Who knew that I would be the one to fall
Beneath the wheel (To fall beneath the wheel)?
You did your best with what you had in your hands
You know I stood where you wanted me to stand
Don’t you know I did all for you,
Don’t you know I did all for you?
Now take a loot at who I’ve become
Did you expect that I would leave, that I would run?
I wanted you to be the last to know,
I wanted you to be the last to know –
But who was I to say, who was I to say?
It takes one to know one like you said
Who knew that I would be the one to fall
Who knew that I would be the one to fall
Beneath the wheel (To fall beneath the wheel)?
