Lyrics
The Confessor
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.
The river's wide that i could not swim across it,
So i convinced myself i'd walked upon the waves
The river's wide that i could not swim across it,
So i convinced myself i'd walked upon the waves
And i don't want to waste my life.
And i wanted to
Feel as saved as they do
But the more i live, the harder to believe
That their god above knows the first thing about love
Or goes along with every rule they make up.
I don't want to waste my life...
