After The Devil Beats His Wife

Lyrics for After The Devil Beats His Wife

You wanna swim in the river I wanna dance in the summer You've always been the believer I'm always left to wonder The water is rushing so fast I think it will take us under Oh, what thought did you recall That would make you say my name? The water is so deep A friend says "Don't go" But my mouth betrays me And says "Hold on" And now I know This is the pain of believing (The danger is real) And there's no easy way out (How did I get here?) You trust too much in my bravery It's my safety you're taking We're gonna drown in the river I cannot swim any farther My blood is pumping so fast My heart and limbs underwater And I reach and find your hand in mine And they say you will be saved, but no I pull and I pull and I pull But your foot, it's anchored deep Your face tells me you won't be free This is the pain of believing (The danger is real) And there's no easy way out (How did I get here?) You trust too much in my bravery It's my safety you're taking I decided long ago Never let your loved ones know Who you really are, who you really are People want the truth but never want the scars And now I'm here My brethren done And I'm the one that's still lying And you say it's gonna be okay Over and over and over and over and over and over again... River wash me clean! River wash me clean! River wash me clean! River -- wash -- me -- clean!
