You've been sentenced to a life with your head in the noose
You've been trying to sing with a voice that's on mute
You've been gasping for air
But your lungs will not move
She waits by the river, far down by the shore
Destined to find you and carry you home
And she's kept you forever
Ever since you were born
Wake from your hiding and cut yourself loose
Come to the river you've nothing to lose
You know every tall tree is as strong as its roots
Go to the river and throw yourself in
Let tides of the blue that run like a hymn
Take you and shake you
And teach you to sing
You get knocked, you get drowned
You get thrown all around
You've been weak you've been strong
Oh the journey's been long
The prayer on your body of the man that has grown
Says this shape is natural, this shape is your own
Exposure is easy to a woman who's known
She waits by the river, far down by the shore
Destined to find you and carry you home
And she's kept you forever
Ever since you were born
Wake from your hiding and cut yourself loose
Come to the river you've nothing to lose
You know every tall tree is as strong as its roots

You've been sentenced to a life with your head in the noose
You've been trying to sing with a voice that's on mute
You've been gasping for air
But your lungs will not move
She waits by the river, far down by the shore
Destined to find you and carry you home
And she's kept you forever
Ever since you were born
Wake from your hiding and cut yourself loose
Come to the river you've nothing to lose
You know every tall tree is as strong as its roots
Go to the river and throw yourself in
Let tides of the blue that run like a hymn
Take you and shake you
And teach you to sing
You get knocked, you get drowned
You get thrown all around
You've been weak you've been strong
Oh the journey's been long
The prayer on your body of the man that has grown
Says this shape is natural, this shape is your own
Exposure is easy to a woman who's known
She waits by the river, far down by the shore
Destined to find you and carry you home
And she's kept you forever
Ever since you were born
Wake from your hiding and cut yourself loose
Come to the river you've nothing to lose
You know every tall tree is as strong as its roots
You've been trying to sing with a voice that's on mute
You've been gasping for air
But your lungs will not move
She waits by the river, far down by the shore
Destined to find you and carry you home
And she's kept you forever
Ever since you were born
Wake from your hiding and cut yourself loose
Come to the river you've nothing to lose
You know every tall tree is as strong as its roots
Go to the river and throw yourself in
Let tides of the blue that run like a hymn
Take you and shake you
And teach you to sing
You get knocked, you get drowned
You get thrown all around
You've been weak you've been strong
Oh the journey's been long
The prayer on your body of the man that has grown
Says this shape is natural, this shape is your own
Exposure is easy to a woman who's known
She waits by the river, far down by the shore
Destined to find you and carry you home
And she's kept you forever
Ever since you were born
Wake from your hiding and cut yourself loose
Come to the river you've nothing to lose
You know every tall tree is as strong as its roots
