Verah - Distant River lyrics

[Verse 1] How to start a verse that will probably change my life I might mess with Mary but I won't make her my wife But I heard Molly is nice and Jackie gets you loose Crystal's for the good times and you see her with the goose I'm turning to a fool The world wants to consume Why do I expect order but don't follow my own rules? I do not fear the world I hold it in my hands Because all the great Rivers lead into a Mountain Man I was once afraid but now I fear nothing I could once be hurt but now I feel nothing They call me Daryl Verah I don't recognise the name From here on out call me 'The Player/The Game' With all these damn questions I feel like I'm on trial I see her crying rivers I guess she's in denial I do not fear love I just want her to hold me To make me feel good she turned around and told me [Hook] She told me sweet lies of sweet loves Heavy from the burden of the truth She spoke of her dreams Broken by the burden Broken by the burden of her youth [Verse 2] She came back at long last Just for me tell her it was doomed from the start I see the pain etchings in her heart Maybe the rain could wipe this slate of ours I guess what happens in the past stays in our brains Remember when I sheltered you when you saw the rain? Remember when I'd comfort you when you were insane? So when I left you The cause of my pain You didn't wanna hear it but its time to face your fears You got a million guys waiting just to treat you different Now you're sipping from the fountain of youth but that's a mission Nah Stop what you're drinking I'll be gone for a minute You say don't smoke but you're stinking of cigarettes Maybe that's why I liked you more than just little bit You say I'm coming out a little inconsiderate You're drowning in your own tears but you ain't seen The River yet [Hook] She told me sweet lies of sweet loves Heavy from the burden of the truth She spoke of her dreams Broken by the burden Broken by the burden of her youth [Outro] Fourteen years she said "I couldn't look into the sun" He saw her laying at the end of my gun Hungry for life and thirsty for the distant river But I don't need you when I've got my left hand The Distant River that leads to The Mountain Plan
