This River lyrics

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...
