It's Easy To Feel Rotten

(album: Everything A River Should Be - 2018)

Sorrow sure endures inside of me (slowly).

I give it a home in a human head (slowly).
We all carry our own burdens.
And I've been holding on to this one since before you left.
This time, logic won't release you from me.
You follow orders as I question my world (question my world).
Both growing older, still the great seas divide us from each other.
Inspired by dignity, I listen to your song.
Bereavement in melody, your words were never wrong.
Will you be the same you?
With so much more to say, all the words left on the shores of my mistakes.
Bury them deep down.
And resurrect in me, the one the ones beside me need.
Resurrect in me.
Celebrating the choices that we make, can feel so out of place.
When the cost is distance, the loss is so persistent.
When the cost is distance, the loss seems so persistent.
Will you be the same you?
With so much more to say, all the words left on the shores of my mistakes.

Bury them deep down.
And resurrect in me, the one the ones beside me need.

Won't you resurrect in me?
Now I've kept a hold of distant memories about you
Showing your strength within the worst of times.
Courage came to you at a young age.
Yet it seems he's easily forgotten.
And it's easy to feel rotten.
This time logic won't release you from me.
