Lyrics
Take me down
To the river
I don't wanna make a sound
Cuz the truth's too hard to face
You might hate me now
Just a little
So would you please take me down
And wash it all away
Uhh
Take me down to the river
You took away my heart
that's "Stand and Deliver"
Don't be proud of the fact
that you can make a flower wither
Easy pocket package in a box
Oh wait that's Tinder
Girl, you had those crystal eyes
Crystal lies that stole your soul and crystallized
You let me down a million times
You're wearin' such a bad disguise
Don't even try
To make me fall in love again
I play the game to keep me whole
You play the game to just pretend
I guess you went and found another
You were gettin' sloppy with the seconds at the buzzer
Don't even try to pretend that weren't with another lover
I could never trust somebody that would love to watch me suffer
You were toxic certified
Pesticide
Another piece of merchandise
You're shopping around
Just looking for someone or something to fill up the void inside
You're mortified
Cuz all you see is lost and found
Amazing grace is my advice
Not pictures on your main account
So take me down
Take me down
To the river
I don't wanna make a sound
Cuz the truth's too hard to face
You might hate me now
Just a little
So would you please take me down
And wash it all away
I still remember the night
The blade was sharp
With tiny broken shards of time
No end in sight
I felt the pain
Slowly possessing, caressing my mind
My heart was inconsolable
Rhythm uncontrollable
I need an EKG
The contract was non-negotiable
You hit me with the ice-cold dose of reality
Double insulated warm coat personality
You never felt bad about the lies that you fed to me
You cooked a three-course meal of over-easy immorality
No
I'm not gonna think about it
I suffer in silence, but no one's around
Does anyone hear that the tree is fallin'
Hit the ground runnin'
To another woman
Heart's jumpin' ship
Drownin' in a sea of emotion
Hop on the train
Without a brain
I'm starting to feel like I'm going insane
Don't deal with the pain
It's part of the game
Maybe that's why I never complain
Don't worry about me
I'm not a pity commercial
Leave the job to Sara Mclachlan
Oops I spilled the tea, that's herbal
I never thought that we'd make it
The truth is staring me down
Feels like all my bones are breaking
Why do I need you now
Take me down
To the river
I don't wanna make a sound
Cuz the truth's too hard to face
You might hate me now
Just a little
So would you please take me down
And wash it all away
