Fear The 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.
I took a walk last night
confusion ruled my mind
like when you wake up in a dream
nothing seemed to rhyme
sometimes it's hard to find,
some sense, a clue, a strategy
all my worries
they never felt so strong
'guess it's time to set a course,
and find a thing to head upon
wasting time
has lasted far too long
a drowning man clutches at a straw
but the current can be awful strong
(Chorus):
fear the river
it takes you to the sea
it makes you loose the ground,
the ground under your feet
when the shore
gets slowly out of reach
when the water gets too deep
youth lasts for a while
then gets lost in time
somehow gets lost along the way
I wish that I
had stayed a child
it's sad that one day children stop to play
