The River - Manchester Orchestra

I fought the spirit with a sword in my side

Cheat… what a way out

Crack my rib, wait to die

I think I know you best when I sleep

I think I know everything

Me and my brothers, we have tongues sharp as knives

I found a way out, make a noise, close your eyes

I think I talk to you best when I sing

I sing about almost everything

Oh God I need it

So let me see again

Take me to the river

And let me see again

Oh my God

Let me see again

Oh my God

Let me see again

Let me see again

Grace taught a debtor

Daily I’m strained to be

God how I feel it

Fetter pride to your feet

I’m gonna leave you the first chance I get

I’m gonna leave you the first chance I get

I’m gonna leave you the first chance I get

I’m gonna leave you the first chance I get

Oh God I need it

I was wrong again

Take me to the river

And make me clean again

Oh my God

Make me clean again

And oh my God

Let me see again
