The River & the Ocean |
| I am a river in the ocean |
| Particles spread far and thin |
| But I can still remember what I was then |
| Now I am something greater, though less of what I was |
| The day that I discovered I was a river in the ocean |
| I am a bird whistling in the dark |
| Stuck in this cavernous mine |
| When silence falls, you know it’s time to start running |
| I am a bird that’s never seen much light |
| Stuck in this cavernous ark |
| Soon they’ll send me out to look for land |
| And I’ll bring back a little bark |
| I am a stroller in the park |
| Wrapped 'round this beautiful babe |
| I and the dark skinned womanpushing me are its slaves |
| I am a stroller in the park |
| Walking my flypaper skin through the balmy august air |
| Which sucks my body’s waters from within |
| I am a river in the ocean |
| Particles spread far and thin |
| But I can still remember what I was then |
| Now I am something greater, though less of what I was |
| The day that I discovered I was a river in the ocean |
| Just a river in the ocean |
| Just a river in the ocean |
| But I’m waiting for the rainstorm |
| To take me back upstream |
| And I’m waiting for the brainstorn |
| To fill me back to the brim |
| So bring on the lightning |
| This midnight orange sky grows frightening |
| Break the water for me |
| Cause I’m waiting for the rainstorm |
| To take me back upstream |
| And I’m waiting for the brainstorn |
| To fill me back to the brim |
| So bring on the lightning |
| This midnight orange sky grows frightening |
| Break the water for me |
| Row, row, row your boat |
| Gently down the stream |
| Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily |
| Life is but a dream |
| Row, row, row your boat |
| Gently down the stream |
| Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily |
| Life is but a dream |
| Life is but a dream |
| Life is but a dream |
| And what’s the difference between nothing and everything |
| And what’s the difference between noone and everyone |
| And what’s the difference between nowhere and everywhere |
| Everything, everyone and everywhere |
| Everything, everyone and everywhere |
| But what’s the difference |
| But I’m waiting for the rainstorm |
| To take me back upstream |
| And I’m waiting for the brainstorn |
| To fill me back to the brim |
| So bring on the lightning |
| Bring on the enlightning |
| Break the water for me |
