Lyrics
[verse]
There's a river running through my chest
Carrying the things I never confessed
Old currents pulling me back home
To a house of stone I used to know
[chorus]
Take me down to the river's edge
Where the water knows my every pledge
I'll let it wash the years away
And carry me to a better day
[verse]
My father's voice is in the tide
The lessons that he tried to hide
Now I'm older, now I see
All the currents that made me me
[chorus]
Take me down to the river's edge
Where the water knows my every pledge
I'll let it wash the years away
And carry me to a better day
[bridge]
If the water could only speak
It would say I'm not so weak
Every scar becomes a stone
That builds the bridge to carry home
[chorus]
Take me down to the river's edge
Where the water knows my every pledge
I'll let it wash the years away
And carry me to a better day
