mirah - the river lyrics

Loading...

skies went dark, got hard to see my body all stretched out
territory to touch and make a path to lead you down
if i could hold the wildest winds from blasting through my house
then i could shine a beacon whether floats, fine, yes, or drowns [?]

but there was no heat, it all had been extinguished, snuffed right out
that was not the way i meant to disappoint the crowd
if you want my center, please don’t slice so much around
and if you won’t be having me, watch the sorrow shake my mouth

and you don’t want to hurt me
but you don’t want to need me
so how can you receive me?

take a seat, don’t grieving be, let’s settle this all out
then one by one, i’ll take these from the caverns of my mouth
the teeth who mash and teeth who make my tender muscles shout
a last goodbye to lose what once i’d never known with out

and in my mind, the river runs, a straight line through the town
never bending only sending stuff from north to south
under bridges fishes wear the currents like a gown
and i will swallow crookedness, not let it drag me down

afraid that if i cut you loose
you’d never again want me to
embrace you in your solitude

now in our eyes, we both still find the perfect place to rest
we’ll unfold wings and fly a while, before the next caress
the atmosphere will hold us dear, and teach us how it’s best
to both feel free and satisfied, our two souls will be blessed

before my eyes, the fireflies they make the night sky low
captured by the sounds of all the h-rns that the frogs blow
through tears so thick, like glue they drip and build a castle slow
i can see you saved for me the sweetness that still glows

and though you’re still my hercules
neptune’s the one who’s taken me
come on, lay that strength upon my sea

steady the string and snap it down the dust gets in my face
a borderline to not cross, mind our manners, keep in place
still, i recall you once extended me with handsome haste
a rope to climb, to call all mine, to ascend you with grace

now we will burn the fog away, our hearts are like the sun
we moved it now, that’s a way down, and though the change was rough
we’ll find our lives are kinder without complications of
the fear in me that had taken seed and crowded out the love

i want you and i let you go
though we can still walk on the same road
if we don’t try it, we’ll never know
