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
This nonsense that I've called my life
´Cause only this river can bear me to safety
Only this river can bear 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 a drinking away
To keep the wolves of my mind at bay
But if you run, you die
I'm just too tired to care
´Cause only this river can bear me to safety
Only this river can bear 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 in my mind?
´Cause only this river in all of her glory
Only this river can bear me away
Only this river
Only this river
Only this river...
