River

Am I a wolf in sheep's clothing?
But I've kept my hands open
And my heart broken
The dark disguised as light?
But I've kept my hands honest
And my heart uncompromising

All my doubts have churned for years
But I've always loved you
Never could deny you
Now they're bursting at the seams
But I still adore you
Always looking back at you

If I let go
Will you still hold onto me?
If I leave the river
Will it not still flow?
If I find shelter
Will not the wind still blow?
Can I believe and disbelieve
A thousand times an hour to keep
My believing nimble?

Are we all living in boxes?
Protecting our own stories
Versions of reality
Now all these metaphors are growing old
Have they just confined you?
One way to define you

Will I be misunderstood?
I've always feared rejection
Always loved their praises
Or will they see it's love that's opposing
Everything I cling to?
Trust is stepping out from all I knew

If I let go
Will you still hold onto me?
If I leave the river
Will it not still flow?
If I find shelter
Will not the wind still blow?
Can I believe and disbelieve
A thousand times an hour to keep
My believing nimble?

What if truth is in the shades
The many different shades of one colour?
What if we will never see it
If we disconnect from one another?
What if I never had it right?
Are you still leading me?
Oh I believe and disbelieve
A thousand times an hour but please
Keep believing in me
Keep believing in me
