Stray from the Path
They Always Take the Guru
[Verse 1]
I can't believe the news
I can't catch my breath
A phone call and a message that no one expects
I don't wanna believe it but I know it's true
I'm still holding onto what's left of you

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I know
You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
Now I know
You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

[Chorus]
It's nights like these that remind me
That we are all
We're all temporary
It's nights like these that remind me
That we are all
We're all temporary

[Verse 2]
Thoughts in my head keep passing
I got no answers for the questions I'm asking
Why does death touch the ones that keep us grounded?
Up to my neck in scum, fucking surrounded
When I wake up and I see who's around
Reality sets in, it makes me wanna drown
Living in a world with pieces of shit
They walk scot-free, I'm fucking sick of it
[Chorus]
It's nights like these that remind me
That we are all
We're all temporary
It's nights like these that remind me
That we are all
We're all temporary

[Bridge]
What has left us, the words that keep us grounded?
(Until my neck is not fucking surrounded)
What has left us, the words that keep us grounded?
(Until my neck is not fucking surrounded)
They always take the guru
It should have been you

[Outro]
Now you're gone with the wind
Everything is still
I'll stay here forever to watch what you've built
