Down To The River
Mitchel Dae
Oh, I've got one foot on solid ground
And I'm losing the other one in quick sand
Cause my strength can't pull it out
Now there's nothing left to do
Cause my weight started shifting from all the decisions
That lead me up to this moment right now
And my will's growing weaker as I'm sinkin' deeper
In a place that I just want to get out
So take me down to the river and repair my soul
My faith is broken and I just wanna let it go
And everything inside me's saying no no no
Nobody, no, nobody
Can pull me out of the shadows and restore my sight
Cause I'm a dead man walking, and I'm questionin' the light
And nobody, no, nobody, no, nobody
Is coming for me now
I was raised in the graveyard of brokеn promises left for dead
I'd shout thеm from the mountain tops then drown them in the river bed
To conceal the evidence of all my righteous failed attempts
The things I have never been are haunting me at night
Cause now I hate who I am, but I don't like who I was
Oh God, won't you save me from this mess
That I feel destined to become now
I'm on the run now
A fugitive that somehow
Dried out in the fall out
So take me down to the river and repair my soul
My faith is broken and I just wanna let it go
And everything inside me's saying no no no
Nobody, no, nobody
Can pull me out of the shadows and restore my sight
Cause I'm a dead man walking, and I'm questionin' the light
And nobody, no, nobody, no, nobody
So take me down to the river and repair my soul
My faith is broken and I just wanna let it go
But everything inside me says no no
So can you pull me out of the shadows and restore my sight
Cause I'm a dead man walking, and I'm questionin' the light
And nobody, no, nobody, no, nobody
Is coming for me now
Cause now I hate who I am, but I don't like who I was
Oh God, won't you save me from this mess
That I feel destined to become now
I'm on the run now
A fugitive that somehow
Still keeps haunting me at night
