Braillyn - River Whispers Lyrics

I could sleep in the river if I tried
The current glides upon my eyes
'Till the water's still
'Till my water stills
All my life I've been waiting for
The calm to take me over
So here I lay
And with her I stay
They said lay your troubles
Down by the water
Watch them wash away
Let them leave your space
But maybe it's just too empty
Without that weight
I tried to fly high above the bullshit
But her fingers pulled me in
To mend my broken hearted end
These whispers may hollow out my bones
But she sings to me so sweetly
Leading me back home
I used to walk along the river bed
Holding a stone above my head
Just to see
Her beauty
And now I'm laying here instead
Wondering why I ever left
Until she says to me
"This is not your journey
You never know what the future holds
You might not always be so alone
But you'll never find your own home
If you go"
So I laid my troubles down by the water
Watched them wash away
I let them leave my space
And maybe I'll find some happiness
Without that weight
I tried to fly high above the bullshit
But her fingers pulled me in
To mend my broken heart
These whispers may hollow out my bones
But she sang to me so sweetly
Leading me back home
