Rivers in Your Mouth Lyrics
Hold it in
The river in your mouth is pouring out
Water takes the shape of all that it surrounds
Yeah I know
I′ve been trying so hard
To keep in time
With all of the hours in your day
Hold it in
They wouldn't let you out among the crowd
Not like that
These streets will tear you down
How it is under my skin
Now you are pictures of all you′ll ever be
Oh, I am not myself today
I am not feeling okay
Hold it in
The river in your mouth is pouring out
Water takes the shape of all that it surrounds
Yeah I know
I've been trying so hard
To keep in time
With all of the sounds that you make
Hold it in
They come at you from both sides of your mind
Thick and thin
These walls you'll always stand behind
I′m sick and tired
Oh, I begged for the world to change
But it don′t
No, it ain't all you and that′s the thing
Oh, I am not myself today
I am not feeling okay
And you
Showed me hope amidst the harlequins in spring
And you
Told me life was learning how to be your friend
