River Lie

(album: STANDBY - 2021)

I saw you coming from miles away
From miles away, from miles away
You tell a story right to my face
Just not the same from yesterday
Boy them lies gonna flood your mouth
Watch out you're gonna suffocate
Don't come running back to me now
I'm done and you're too fucking late

Bet I would set this house on fire
Before I let you back inside
When trouble waters rolling higher and higher

Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie

Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie

You made a bed with empty words
Where you could lay my heart to die
Don't you know I'm like gasoline?
You struck the match, I'll run you dry

Maybe you think
Way too high of yourself
When really you're not more
Than dust on the shelf

Bet I would set this house on fire
Before I let you back inside
When troubled water's rolling higher and higher

Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie

Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie

Baby you're wasting your time standing at my door
Don't bother knocking cause love don't live here no more

Baby you're wasting your time standing at my door
Don't bother knocking cause love don't live here no more

Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie

Just let the river
Let the river
Let the river lie lie lie lie
Lie lie lie

At my door

Don't live here no more

At my door

Just let the river
