Down by the River
I couldn’t lie and say I can’t relate,
Everyday felt as if time hired the stakes.
When I’m feeling down and blue,
I begin pondering about my situation with you.

I was a stream crashing into the trenches,
The water was murky, drowning the rabbits.
The doctor gave me chlorine, kept me disinfected,
Until I met the boy who kept my patience tested.

Like a river, to the river,
You’re steering my tides through the storm,
Don’t you hither, please don’t hither,
You’re sewing up the heart I thought was...
