The Riverbank Lyrics

I've been seized by the icy grip of the stream surrounding me


The danger all too welcoming, and comforting the same

Body thrown, broken bones, 
as the force of the river flows


The looming plummet of the falls is now approaching me. 


Arm snagged on the rocks of the riverbank

Clinging on with calloused grip, for fear of drop and depth unknown


Now a blur, A prisoner, 
of a world undesirable


The need to break free has been faltered by a comforting urge 



To lay beside,

all that internally divides



This nervous fear of the unknown

(The unknown)


Bounds us by our wants, not needs


Plagued, our souls become



Anymore, Tug of war, 
will leave me trapped under this rock


Every time I pull away I seem to get dragged deeper in



And I lay beside,

All that internally divides

This nervous fear of the unknown

(The unknown)


Bounds us by our wants, not needs


Plagued, our souls become


This nervous fear of the unknown


(The unknown)

Bounds us by our wants, not needs

Plagued, our souls become



Bonds have darkened, blade is sharpened, I'm prepared to slice


The limb, the tumour, if I stay I'm left alone die


The day of reckoning for me is finally in sight

I've never felt more alive in my whole fucking life


I must let go

And brave the abyss below 


This nervous fear of the unknown


(The unknown)

Bounds us by our wants, not needs

Plagued, our souls become


This nervous fear of the unknown

(The unknown)


Bounds us by our wants, not needs

Plagued, our souls become
