Shallow River

The water moves beneath my skin
It knows the things I buried in
You look at me like you can see
The cracks beneath what's left of me

Your voice is calm your eyes are clear
I want the truth I want the fear

Shallow River pull me down
Wash the past I never drowned
You trace the scars I tried to hide
You bring the dark I keep inside

I walk the banks the memories bite
They haunt my steps they steal my night
You take my hand I pull away
But still you're where my shadows stay

Your voice is calm your eyes are clear
I want the truth I want the fear

Shallow River pull me down
Wash the past I never drowned
You trace the scars I tried to hide
You bring the dark I keep inside

If healing hurts then let it be
You break the locks inside of me
I try to run I try to mend
But you're the storm I can't defend

Shallow River pull me down
Wash the past I never drowned
You trace the scars I tried to hide
You bring the dark I keep inside
