lyrics

This time it look so clear, no caffeine rush or beer
Could cloud my understanding.
It started as a joke, when you lifted me off the floor
And begged me to act like a man.
I took it all so wrong; I made myself a clown,
Bellybutton of the world.
What was I thinking then, when I had you face to face
And let you go instead.

Executioned by your friends, cold plate of revenge,
Do you want your share?
With the tail between the legs, I keep asking for respect,
Haven’t earned it yet.
Flowing into a sea of calm, I’m a river from the sky
Searching for some company.
One more victim of my moods
No one told you love is cruel.
Lose yourself in my stream.

I’m a river since I fell from the sky.
