My River and Your Lake
Don't rest!
You can't!
I know...
I know I can't rest,
rest my head on your shoulder,
cause you wouldn't understand.
Wouldn't understand this wild river I have.
It never rests.
Never rests, it flows in my head,
until it explodes.
My head explodes, from the wild river I have.
Day and night, it never stops,
it flows and flows,
until I explode.
I know, everyone has this wild river,
but never the same.
So you wouldn't understand
why I can't rest my head on your shoulder.
But oh, how I want that to feel.
Feel the love you share,
give me a lake,
the lake of peace and rest I couldn't get,
before I sink and drown myself to my death.
Everyone has it's own river, I know.
But I couldn't let you drown, like I do.
Come to me, whenever it gets dark,
rest your head on my shoulder.
I give you my lake,
my heart,
and the peace I want.
