The River

Oh we are all the same
Doesn't matter where you born
Doesn't matter where you raised
Some may have, some less are more
But there's no last minute worths fighting for

We all feel the hails of tide
When we wipe in the river
We all feel the fragile bones
When the cold makes us shiver
We can understand our place
When we look at the stars and we realize
Just how small we are

So call their names to ease your pride
Though those who come before you
Have had to pay a price
Where's your heart
On things that fade
But when ashes turn to dust
There is truth we can't escape

We all feel the hails of tides
When we wipe in the river
We all feel the fragile bones
When the cold makes us shiver
We can understand our place
When we look at the stars and realize
Just how small we are

Are you waiting for the one
Are you scared for your life
Are you running from the ashes
But you know no one makes it out alive
But you know no one makes it out alive
But you know no one makes it out alive

Oh they've come to take me home
I'll leave behind my body
But forever let my soul
And all is good
None else remains
Life comes and goes forever
But our freedom doesn't change

We all feel the hails of tide
When we wipe in the river
We all feel the fragile bones
When the cold makes us shiver
We can understand our place
When we look at the stars and we realize
Just how small we are

We can feel the hails of tides
When we wipe in the river
We can feel the fragile bones
When the cold makes us shiver
We can understand our place
When we look at the stars and we realize
Just how small we are
