I go back to the place

Where the water starts by kissing my toes

Before creeping up to cover my face

I'm lost to the river

And I don't know if I've got the strength

To pull this weary body to shore

Before the rhythm offers a final embrace

The current flows heavy, I get carried away

Far from home

This riverbank's rocky, how it tears at my skin

When I reach out

But the water it rushes, it lulls me to sleep

It promises quiet, eternal, and deep

I can't deny the appeal

I go back to the place

Where the water starts by kissing my toes

Before creeping up to cover my face

I'm lost to the river

And I don't know if I've got the strength

To pull this weary body to shore

Before the rhythm offers a final embrace

The rain begins falling, a cool cloth on my brow

It soothes me

Above and below now, the water's closing in

And I let it

Do I swallow it down, or am I out of my head

A thin line between peace and eternal regret

So I give one more kick

I go back to the place

Where the water starts by kissing my toes

Before creeping up to cover my face

I'm lost to the river

And I don't know if I've got the strength

To pull this weary body to shore

Before the rhythm offers a final embrace

Hold me close, 'cause I have forgotten the way

The boats we row, are so quick to capsize in this drink

Hold me close, 'cause I have forgotten the way

The boats we row, are so quick to capsize in this drink
