Lyrics

River

Everyone it seems has found love

Ringing like a warning sign in my ear

On every platform but their stories are never enough

Just wait for me dear

Cuz screens they become a veil

Another game for the masquerade

The ever looming, all intrusive age

So I choose to visualise

The river has highs

Never bothered me before

Rejecting the voices clouding my head

But the fun is in the chase

Just move with the tide

And let gravity pull you along

Like a river

Like a river

We're distracted by our desires you see

When they’re in the palm of our hands

We're tryna push towards nirvana but it seems

Instead we search for neverland

Instead we search for neverland

Instead we search for neverland

Cuz screens they become a veil

Another game for the masquerade

The ever looming, all intrusive age

So I choose to visualise

The river has highs

River

The river has highs
