f o l l o w t h e r i v e r - A Song About Truth

When we first met you said: "Hold on to me"
Keep my eyes wide open, keep my eyes wide open
So I'll pick up some straw dolls and I'll burn them down
Keep on feeding our bonfire
And I'll put my rusty heart into a pretty little matchbox
For yours too rugged to be preserved
And we'll be ancient stars colliding into each other's atmosphere
Stones in our pockets, but so easy to fly away
But this ain't a song about truth
And it's so hard to take
This ain't a song about truth
And it hurts so bad
I'm king of rain and poor of everything
Since you've run run run run run away
You've run run run run run away
You've run run run run run away
You've run run run run run away
And I will give you all of my strength if you ever need protection
For you're too rare to forget
And we could screw it up or maybe find perfection
Just learn to be loved, loved as you loved me so far
But this ain't a song about truth
And it's so hard to take
This ain't a song about truth
And it hurts so bad
I'm king of rain and poor of everything
Since you've run run run run run away
You've run run run run run away
You've run run run run run away
You've run run run run run away
But this ain't a song about truth
And it's so hard to take
This ain't a song about truth
And it hurts so bad
My truth is wasted under pouring rains
Still praying for a song about truth
Still praying for a song about truth
Still praying for my song about truth
Still praying for my song about truth
