Don't explain
Felt it as I walked in
The air's so thick
It got hard to stand

I started counting you out
So how could I live with you now
Don't you know that it's not only you who almost drowned

My left hand
Pulled over your shoulder
Together beneath
Wait off the hours

And I started blurring you out
So how could I look at you now
Don't you know that it's not only you who almost drowned

If I had known
I'd have run to the river
And if you weren't home
I'd have jumped in the water

And I started counting you out
So how could I live with you now
Don't you know that it's not only you who almost drowned

How could it be
You're so peacefully sleeping
Hide in your dreams
As I keep you alive till the morning

And I started blurring you out
So how could I live with you now
Don't you know that it's not only you who almost drowned

River

How was I supposed to ease your mind
When you’re the one who’s stable all the time
Don’t forget the words are hard to find
To dry your tears and give you rest tonight 

If I left you, I’d be free
It would kill you, but you’re the one who’s killing me 
Would you learn to live alone
Would I learn too
Cause you’re the only thing I know
And you’re the only thing I know

How was I to kiss your sunken cheeks
When you’re the one who’s shaken at the knees
And how could I pretend I have not seen 
The way that you have wearied through the weeks

If I left you, I’d be free
It would kill you, but you’re the one who’s killing me
Would you learn to live alone
Would I learn too
Cause you’re the only thing I know
And you’re the only thing I know
And she’s the only thing I know

How could I recall the way it was 
When I can hardly keep my head above 
And how could I explain what you have done
Oh how could I explain what you hand done

If I left you, I’d be free
It would kill you, but you’re the one that’s killing me 
Would you learn to live alone
Would I learn too
Cause you’re the only thing I know 
And you’re the only thing I know 
She’s the only thing I know

How Was I

We took the ferry
To North Belvedere
Might need to cover your ears

I mean it
Now more than ever
I mean it
Right now and forever

Snowfall
Needing to see
Pretty patterns
If you're listening

I mean it
Now more than ever
I mean it
Now more than ever
I mean it
Now more than ever
I mean it
Right now and forever

incase

burning a bridge
what’s happening 
all of your friends
turning again
oh what a mess
cause of my stress
burning a bridge
people you miss
pardon my kiss
it’s all in the wrist
check on your kids
testing their piss
burning a bridge

here in the dark
only know you 
when we’re apart
all that you are
poisonous dart
right in the heart

the key that you hold
won’t unlock the bolt
and it’s gonna get cold
so put on your coat
try to let go
of all that you know
life is a show
with new episodes


burning a bridge
what’s happening 
all of your friends
turning again
oh what a mess
cause of my stress
burning a bridge
people you miss
pardon my kiss
it’s all in the wrist
check on your kids
testing their piss
burning a bridge
