Roches - Suffering Is The Nature Of Samsara lyrics

rate me

I woke up on a mountain I had walked around the world<br />

My family would have been so proud<br />

I never had that kind of courage when I was a girl<br />

Of all the children it was me who always cried out loud.<br />

I cried out loud when a boy in my class<br />

Poisoned my best friend.<br />

He put her body in a box on the grass<br />

I had so much to tell her but I never saw her again.<br />

I'm trying to be true to what I believe in.<br />

I grew up on the east coast of a place they call The West<br />

I had a set of rules to go by<br />

Followed them so faithfully I needed me a rest<br />

So I took up with the guru but I didn't really know why.<br />

Guru said "The pain you're in is nothing but a dream"<br />

I told him "I'm unable to believe."<br />

"Well, that's a start," he said and then he ran out of gasoline<br />

But I still think he's got something up his sleeve.<br />

He's trying to be true to what he believes in.
