Again- again left with this lesson that is not mine to learn Tears regret and painful questions it smashes your spine Steals all that time And takes the eyes right out of your head But we don't point a finger Nobody says a word But it rips us apart That old man I looked up to Passed out on the floor That stupid crazy motherfucker Taking all those lives The one the love my mother Poisoned from inside What it did to me ripped us apart And you how did it get to you The smartest of us all It knocked you down and beat you up But neither you or it would ever let it go And again I pay the price
