Manchester Orchestra Lyrics

11. The River

I fought the spirit 
With a sword in my side 
CHEAT... WHAT A WAY OUT 
Crack my rib 
Wait to die 
I think I know you best when I sleep 
I think I know everything 

Me and my brothers 
We have tongues sharp as knives 
I found a way out 
Make a noise, close your eyes 
I think I talk to you best when I sing 
I sing about almost everything 

Oh god I need it 
So let me see again 
Take me to the river 
And let me see again 
Oh my god 
Let me see again 
Oh my god 
Let me see again 
Let me see again 

Grace taught a debtor
Daily I'm strained to be
God how I feel it 
Fetter pride to your feet 
I'm gonna leave you the first chance I get [4x] 

Oh god I need it 
Well I was wrong again 
Take me to the river 
And make me clean again 
Oh my god 
Make me clean again 
And oh my god 
Let me see again
