Animal Carrycase - Smoked Beech lyrics

I walk down to the riverside And I hold you in my stare And if you somehow tear away my pride I'll still be standing there I wait until the sun flies by And I open up my mind I think about the things I've tried But I have failed to find You run into the darkness You try to fight but you are harmless And every day you try to make it But I don't care if you can't take it I ride down to the corner shop And I go to get some food I run and they tell me to stop But I'm really not in the mood Here's a lesson that you must learn And I am going to teach Some things in life you've got to earn And they're never gonna be cheap It's time to for you to break away From the nothing you've become I think you've got to make your way And you should probably run Your mind is looking really gray Cos you don't know what to do You try the same thing every day But it'll still come back to you You run into the darkness You try to fight but you are harmless And every day you try to make it But I don't care if you can't take it
