Lyrics
7. River
I’m out of my depth here
The water is over my head
Thundering over the rocks
On the riverbed
Soon the water will wash me away
I will tumble and turn
I won’t try to swim
As the water spills over the edge
I won’t cling on to the rocks
As I feel myself fall
Then the water will follow me down
I will tumble and turn
The water will pull me
And push me and won’t let me go
Captured in water
I am unable to breathe
Soon the water will wash me away
Show me the secrets it keeps
And I’m not me
I watch as I am swept away
As I break
I feel nothing at all
Numb and cold
I no longer need to breathe
I slip away
Now I’m the river the river is me
But now it seems
Like it’s all gone too far
All the important things
now mean nothing to me
But still the water will wash me away
I will tumble and turn
