How Do You Know Lyrics

You said you"d hate to see me drown in the river,
I"ve got news for you sister,
I don"t want to either.
You said the size of the buildings will dwarf me,
and the shadows will cloak me,
and the fumes will choke me.
You said I never even tried one time,
how do you know?
How do you know I never?
Maybe the sights will make me star-struck,
maybe you"re right; I"ll come unstuck,
and run out of luck.
But maybe I"ll use the shadows to shade me,
use the river to float me,
and be the blood that runs through me.
