Riverbed

[00:37.71] I wore away, as years washed by
[00:46.17] Like a stone in any riverbed to find
[00:55.12] But I am flesh and bone, awaiting peace of mind
[01:05.30] I've lost myself in thoughts of days behind
[01:13.73] Distant memories
[01:17.72] Form constellations of despair
[01:24.07] Guiding through the state of disrepair
[01:32.09] Illuminate
[01:36.80] All the hurts that have accrued
[01:42.01] Unlock the cage, holding back the truth
[01:50.22] I'll beg to start anew
[01:55.32] If it will cauterize the wounds
[02:00.10] Damn these rivers of bad blood
[02:04.49] And quell the raging of the flood
[02:09.36] Worn away, the years crawl by
[02:18.06] As arbors wither slow, becoming deserts, dry
[02:27.34] Along with flesh and bone, beset on every side
[02:37.31] By misery, borne within the mind
[02:46.07] Distant silhouettes
[02:50.61] Nearly all of them obscured
[02:56.42] Exposed to be
[02:58.74] The damages incurred
[03:04.34] I'll beg to start anew
[03:08.91] If it will cauterize the wounds
[03:14.15] Damn these rivers of bad blood
[03:18.38] And quell the raging of the flood
[03:26.35]
[04:19.23] Laying down in the riverbed
[04:28.66] Counting the words that I've never said to you
[04:38.26] Their numbers swell so far above my head
[04:47.49] Wide-open eyes drink in torrential red
[04:55.32] As I drown
[05:03.56]
