lyrics

Gonna bury you in the woods
gonna leave you in the pines
Mark your grave with a thought in the back of my mind
in time
like you it's gonna die
No one's gonna hear you scream
no one's gonna hear you cry
Voice will sound like a tree that falls
in the middle of the night
middle of the night

chorus:
Now I
I know you'll find
that dying is easier than life

We're gonna take a walk
down to the water line
Listen as the river runs like you're gonna try
It's no surprise

Who do you pray to my friend
who are you trying to find
Someone who won't leave you
cuz you've been left behind
been left behind

Chorus

Stars might shine on you my friend
they might show a sign
but I'll tell the truth
that I taught them to lie
taught them to lie

You're gonna see it clear my friend
I'll be satisfied
with the price you paid for being here tonight
being here tonight

Chorus
