White sheets run red
|
|
Red sheets burn white
|
|
This is not your bed
|
|
So very far from home again
|
|
|
|
Dirty river water runs all the way to your room
|
|
The water carries memories
|
|
Let them guide you
|
|
|
|
Take a breath and make your way back down
|
|
Against the stream
|
|
|
|
Upstream against the knives of cold
|
|
Will time destroy the weight of what we know?
|
|
|
|
Draw the map a circling spiral down
|
|
Destination your middle name
|
|
Momentum saved
|
|
Now just wait
|
|
|
|
Soak this in river water
|
|
|
|
You might be asleep or you might be awake
|
|
It doesn't matter now
|
|
Dirty river water holds the waste that you make
|
|
It doesn't matter now
|
|
|
|
Upstream against the knives of cold
|
|
Will time destroy the weight of what we know?
|
|
|
|
Now just wait
|
|
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
|
|
|
You haven't heard a word of what I've said
|
|
You can't drown in a dry river bed
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
|
|
|
You haven't heard a word of what I've said
|
|
You can't drown in a dry river bed
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
|
|
|
And this is not your bed
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
|
|
|
You haven't heard a word of what I've said
|
|
You can't drown in a dry river bed
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
|
|
|
You haven't heard a word of what I've said
|
|
You can't drown in a dry river bed
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
|
|
|
You haven't heard a word of what I've said
|
|
And this is not your bed
|
|
|
|
Your white sheets run red
|
