Description
"Rivers" is the final track on "Shake A Symphony", which is a concept album that covers the struggle between dreams and reality in a songwriters journey. "Rivers" is the reality check and the story of the failed songwriter. In this case the "river" is the normal life and the working man's job.
Lyrics
River and rivers and rivers, Oh currents you carry me Slivers of quivers in my knees, these shivers Brings rivers and rivers of tears I see a better day, my sins have crept away And I have everything to lose Retrace those butterflies, Lost inside demon eyes, You can hold me to my word I'm writing my name in the sand, Leaving myself with this land, I say that I'm fine, but you know that I might Just let the tide carry me away Rivers and rivers and rivers, Oh currents you carry me Slivers of quivers in my knees, these shivers Brings rivers and rivers of tears My knees are trembling, they shake a symphony And all i think to do is change But I'm stuck, I can't get out, Euphoria of doubt And I'm holding to my word I'm writing my name in the sand, Leaving myself with this land, I say that I'm fine, but you know that I might Just let the tide carry me away All alone Rivers and rivers and rivers, Oh look what you've done to me Slivers of quivers in my knees, these shivers Brings rivers and rivers of tears I'm writing my name in the sand, Leaving myself with this land, I say that I'm fine, but you know that I might Just let the tide carry me away
