A River

on Trivialities

Lyrics

you are a river, you flow to the sea.
you are meandering away from me.
and now I stand on a mountain
when I should sit by the shore,
I watch the tides from a distance,
more distant than ever before.

So; slit open my chest now
and cut out my lung....
cut out those melodies that I
shouldn't have sung

and give me some gills instead
that I can breathe through...
give me some gills instead,
so I can immerse myself in you!

you are a river, you flow to the sea.
you are meandering away, away from me.
