The Love - The Dear Hunter

I was 22 when I first died

But in the darkest dark, I saw no light

And it was blinding just how dim it got

It was a cold I thought could never come

And I had hurt before but not like this

It was the strangest struggle I had ever hit

And I was useless to the world around me

To barely gather up the strength to say:

«Save me

When the rivers run dry

Bring me where the waters run deep

Where the eyes cannot see»

It was 25 and I died again

And I prepared myself for what the world would send

Cause I had felt this darkness wrap around me

And through its strangle I could barely beg:

«Save me

When the rivers run dry

Bring me where the waters run deep

Where the eyes cannot see»

I won’t forget about all the pieces I’ve lost

I won’t forget about all the pieces I’ve lost

I’m nearing 29 and I haven’t died

And I’m done with cursing at the skies

And I remember how my mother spoke when she said

«Son, don’t be afraid to call on those who love you most»

(Save me)

When the rivers run dry

(Bring me)

Where the waters run deep

Where the eyes cannot see
