Rivers In Your Mouth
Hold it in loveThe river in your mouth is pouring outWater takes theShape of all that it surroundsYeah I knowI've been trying so hard to keep in timeWith all of the hours in your dayHold it in babeWho let you out among the crowd?Not like thatThese streets will tear you downHow it isUnder my skin, now you arePictures of all you’ll ever be
I am not myselfTodayI am not feelingOkay
Hold it in loveThe river in your mouth is pouring outWater takes theShape of all that it’s aroundYeah I knowI been trying so hard to keep in timeWith all of the sounds that you makeHold it in babeCome at you from both sides of your mindThick and thin theseWalls you’ll always stand behindAre sick and tiredOh I beg for the world to changeBut it don’tOh I lean on you and that’s the thing
I am not myselfTodayI am not feelingOkay
And youShowed me hope amidst the harlequins in springAnd youTold me life was learning how to be your friend
