lyrics

God rest my soul with the rest of em'
kinda needed this to be said
I would bite my tongue at the river's mouth
while my horse is up to his knee
and I just can't forgive you
no, you left me out to dry
as our hearts filled with nothing
now their down at that part of the sea

I saw my destiny
as it moves like a river of silk
I keep my eyes on the coming hill
as I lost my will to die

and it takes time to walk around
but I know my bodies there
for the time I lived in revelation
almost made me ill
I could kill my thoughts in the living room
I could find my place in the dark
but the times I went to the river's mouth
no view could ever compare

I saw my destiny
as it moves like a river of silk
I keep my eyes on the coming hill
as I lost my will to die

If you want to cross the river there
then become the man on stilts
you can push yourself to the limitless
you perceive as what you will
