lyrics

I've tried to write this song a thousand times
To get the words down right
To make you understand
But it ain't easy
Trying to say a thing that has no end
That goes for miles and bends
Dark and turning

I know you're finding it hard to see past
All the demons that follow you into the night
But I'm longing
'Cause something's got to change here

You say there's always tomorrow
I say I'm only living for today

I'm gonna take you down to the river
Follow our reflections under the water
Do you like what you see?
Are you gonna leave the world burning
Twisted and churning when you leave?

Some say fade away, don't let the water in
Don't rock the boat again
I guess that life would be an easy ride
To make my mind go blind
Peacefully

I know you're finding it hard to see past
All the demons that follow you into the night
But I'm longing
'Cause something's got to change here

You say there's always tomorrow
I say I'm only living for today
I'm gonna take you down to the river
Follow our reflections under the water
Do you like what you see?
Are you gonna leave the world burning
Twisted and churning when you leave?

Lay me down in the river and
Wake me up when it's over
I guess we've got tomorrow to wake up to today
Why do I feel like it's all slipping away?

But you say there's always tomorrow
I say I'm only living for today
Do you like what you see?
Are you gonna leave the world burning
Twisted and churning when you leave?
