The River

Boy quit looking so helpless
Nothing really is that bad
You can't sleep your body's restless, yes it is
Trying to find the love you never had

Lay yourself in the river
Let it wash away your tears
Water's cold and you will shiver
You've been holding back for all these years

Go somewhere and see the trees
Where city noise won't cloud your mind
Finally get a little peace, yes you will
Seeking the you you'd never find

Lay yourself in the river
Let it wash away your tears
Water's cold and you will shiver
You've been holding back for all these years

Lay your guilt down
Lay your shame down
Lay your body down
It only weighs you down

Lay your guilt down
Lay your shame down
Lay your body down
It only weighs you down
It only weighs you down

Lay yourself in the river
Let it wash away your tears, oh they're falling down
Water's cold and you will shiver
You've been holding back for all these years

Lay yourself in the river
Let it wash away your tears, oh they're falling down
Water's cold and you will shiver
You've been holding back for all these years
You've been holding back for all these years
