[ Featuring The lo-fi Rider ]
I laid the road and I paid the price
I'm caught in the jaws of this crushing vice
So I sing by the fire that burns by my side
I ain't no saint born to be a sinner
I've learned to lose and watch all the goddamn winners
Cos I can't change the flow of the water in this raging river
And I've been loaded just like a gun
Cos sometimes I feel I ain't got no one
And I've flown too high, too fast, too close to the sun
I'm locked away inside this cell
I should be halfway to heaven but I'm closer to hell
And there's nothing left inside just a tear in my eye and a story to tell
I'm left here searching for light in the dark
All I ever needed was just one spark
I stumble around till I fall to the ground with this broken heart
So I've got some advice to tell you one thing
Never climb the mountains where the angels sing
Cos they'll lead you to the top and take all that you've got leave you suffering
As I fall into the river I feel its rage and my body shivers
Take my breath, take me deeper
Take my sins and throw me to the reaper
Let me walk free of the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Take my hand, we'll pray together
Just set me free my lord and my father
I swim for my life with the current so strong
Smashed against the rocks for all the things that I've done wrong
I try to catch my breath from all that I've got left
Your river sings a song as it drags me further on
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
Set me free, free from the water
Set me free from the rage in the river
I'll change my ways and I will do better
Just set me free my lord and my savior
