[Verse 1] I was born into self-actualization I knew exactly who I was But I never got my chance to be young So when you lay me inside of a coffin Bury me on the side of the hill That's a good place to get some thinking done It didn't work out the way that I planned it They all seem to want to take it away Everything that I thought to be true So it's obvious to me somebody Somewhere must have really done a number on you And I know because the f**ers got me too [Hook]
All the pretty horses, all flowers and trees They will all mean less than nothing when it all has come to be [Verse 2] God sent me a vision of the future in a dream on a Saturday night And I see no reason to celebrate For when I saw it I wept like a child It came to me like a knife in the chest You and me and everyone, forever, to ache and ache and ache So Father, if it's possible, let this cup pa** me by But if it can't without my drinking it, then thy will be done
