So give yourself to him just a little
baby's breath got stuck in the middle
between teardrops and tv

she was born to late to have put her time in
now we're hanging wreaths on a wire
I know, that we were meant to be

When you're head can't take your heart away
and you fall to feel your bones
I will come again to see you my friend
where the river don't lead to the road

Well we all live one to the other
breath this air and you are my brother
and I hope that this is not for sale

so I gave myself to sex and religion
at least that way you get what you're given
outside, a siren starts to wail

and my head can't take my heart away
so I fall just to feel my bones
I will come again to see you my friend
where the river don't lead to the road.

God knows that you took the river
just about as far as it could go
God knows that I took the road
but the road don't leave me home

and my head won't take my heart away
so i fuck to feel my bones
will you come again to see me my friend
where the river don't lead to the road

where the river don't lead to, it leads where it needs to,
and the river don't lead to the road.
