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 the nonsense that I've called 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 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 bare me to safety
Only this river can bare me away

I feel her flowing, flowing right through me
I hear her 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 bare me away

Only this river
Only this river
Only this river...
