Gently We Row
When my soul crashed into my bodyFalling into consciousnessThat's when my mind began this illusionOf taking it step after stepI looked into mother's eyesI said tell me what I should believeShe drew me a room with a light and saidJust turn it off when you leave
Slow, slow, this river is slowWe're all out here on our ownRow, row, gently we rowOne day we'll find our way homeStep after stepThey drew me a townThey drew me a fear and a needThey drew me a god andThey drew me some moneyHiding the truth far from meI asked the cool fire lightTell me, what I should believeAnd they gave me a songAnd they gave me a danceAnd said sleep now your pain will relieveSlow, slow, this river is slowAnd we're all out here on our ownRow, row, gently we rowAnd one day we'll find our way homeI've stumbled and crawledI've begged to know whyAnd I've been ashamedWhen I've chosen to lieIn all of this darknessI have searched for a lightTo come and find meAnd when I found meI wrapped my arms roundMy own daughter as she fell into her place and timeAnd as her mind creates her illusionsI won't complicate hers with mineShe looked into her mother's eyesShe said tell me what I should believeAnd I drew her a doorAnd I drew her a keyAnd I said when you're ready you'll come and find meAnd we'll walk out of here and tomorrow will be a new daySlow, slow, this river is slowAnd you are never out here on your ownRow, row, gently we rowOhAnd together we'll find our waySlow, slow, this river is slowLife is not what it seemsRow, row, gently we row
The truth isIt's only a dream
