"Rivers" lyrics

Rivers and words go round and round
Try their best to make you drown
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go around
They go round and around

Some of them love you
As much as they need you
Some of them just want to
Be with you on top

God forbid you stumble
Drop the ball or fumble
Then you see who's with you
And who's really not

Spreads like wild fire
Liars and admirers
Singing like a choir
Quiet when they're caught

Loving me right to my face
Stab me when I leave the place
They don't know I know
Who's with me and who's not

Rivers and words go round and round
Try their best to make you drown
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go around
Rivers and words go round and round
Try their best to break you down
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go around
They go round and around

They just want to see you fail
Or ride the wave on your red coattail
Everything's a smooth sail
Til you hit the rocks

Hard times show the hard truth
Who loves you and who used you
And who's really with you
And who's really not

Rivers and words go round and round
Try their best to make you drown
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go around
Rivers and words go round and round
Try their best to break you down
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go around
They go round and around

Rivers and words go round and round
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go round and round
Flowing soft or crashing loud

Rivers and words go round and round
But I wont let them bring me down

Rivers and words go round and round
Try their best to break you down
Flowing soft or crashing loud
Rivers and words go around
Rivers and words go around
