Lyrics
This River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Stare at a picture
But there's nothing for it
I pull on the bottle
And watch this river
Roll on by
Trying to find purpose
Trying to see meaning
Trying to make sense of
The nonsense I call my life
'Cause only this river
Can bare me to safety
Only this river
Can bare me away
See them all work and play
There on the other bank
Warm in their houses
While I face my cold alone
Guess I've been drinking away
To keep the wolves of my mind at bay
But if you run
You die
I'm just to tired to care
'Cause only this river
Can bare me to safety
Only this river
Can bare me away
I feel her flowing
Flowing right through me
I hear the whispers
Drowning my words
'Cause only this river
Only this river
Only this river
Can save me
From myself
Where did my soul go?
Where did my spirit hide?
Why won't they rescue me
From the pain of the mind
'Cause only this river
In all of her glory
Only this river
Can bare me away
Only this river
Only this river
Only this river
