Stood next to the river As the sky grew black Felt icy water in my fingers Wondered if I wanted to turn back
Some kinda numbness Filled up my empty soul As all those dark trees and branches Rattled in the cold
If I turn back now Yeah, the sun’s gonna rise But I’ll still be dyin’ My bones freezin’ up inside
There’s a peaceful kind of fear In knowing you’re alone No one’s gonna cry for you When you don’t come home And all that black water It’d swallow you whole And as the fish plucked out your eyes You’d be still as a ******’ stone
If I turn back now Yeah, the sun’s gonna rise But it’s not like I can turn back time And I’m already floating Through this empty life
