Looking back now, I think one of the hardest lessons you learn is that people, especially the ones you love, will disappoint you. While the tone and structure of this song would suggest another truth between the chords, it is about my time in Duluth and coming to cope with that fact.
lyrics
Disappointment is the worst kind of hurt
because it grows from your own mind.
What is to be done?
What's left to be said?
I know, I can't change your mind
People come from places
and share what they know,
but what do they really know?
People usually come to like
what they come to know,
but what if they just don't know?
That's why
I only trust,
the rain down from the sky.
and the chill of Superior on my toes.
I'll put all my faith into,
a cup of house blend gold,
a bank of hip-high snow,
and the fact that all who come here go.
The hardest part they say,
is fearing the unknown.
But I know, fear has its time and place.
Wide eyes dim,
like the ones who come before.
Why take, when you can ask for more?
People come from places
and share what they know,
but what do they really know?
People usually come to like
what they come to know,
but what if they just don't know?
That's why
I only trust,
the rain down from the sky.
The earth as she ebbs and flows,
and the chill of Superior on my toes.
I'll put all my faith into,
a cup of house blend gold,
a bank of hip-high snow,
and the fact that all who come here go.
The fact that all who come here go.
The fact that all who come here go.
