You got what you wanted.
You own a small part of this cheap town.
It seemed to happen very quickly as soon as you shed the black leather for
the guise of respectability.
Don't think you ever had me fooled.
I knew exactly who you are and what you would become the minute
we parted ways.
Congratulations!
I wish you well.
Just remember that you are not the first person to flourish in society
after disowning me.
