Rocks and Branches Lyrics

All the good things I want

I want to hold in my hand

And all the things I don't know

That I want to understand

These are the things that push me forward

And at the same time bring me down

I am running through a forest

With rocks and branches on the ground

And I will run for the joy that I may reach

And I will fall and feel the pain of defeat

But I will rise and wipe the dirt from my brow

And I will run through the forest

With rocks and branches on the ground

And at night the ravens crow

The buzzards circle o'er my head

They await my destruction

When I lay me down to rest

But I will not fear the dark

The enemy and his teeth

And I will run through the forest

Even when my death they may seek

And I will run for the joy that I may reach

And I will fall and feel the pain of defeat

But I will rise and wipe the dirt from my brow

And I will run through the forest

When the enemy is lurking 'round

I will run for the joy that I may reach

And I will fall and feel the pain of defeat

But I will rise and wipe the dirt from my brow

And I will run through the forest

When the enemy is lurking 'round

I will run through the forest

With rocks and branches on the ground
