Lyrics
I caught a glimpse in the corner of my eye
I noticed something briefly in my peripheral vision
I think I knew what I would find
I had a sense of what I would discover
But there’s something else at play
There's another factor influencing the situation
And everything at stake
There's a lot at risk or in jeopardy
And so the river’s calling me away
The river is metaphorically drawing me away, suggesting a change or escape
I’m no saint
I am not a morally perfect person
I’ve no virtue
I lack moral excellence
I wish I could feel that you hurt too
I desire to empathize with your pain, but it's challenging
But it’s so dark I can’t tell god from the devil
The darkness makes it difficult to distinguish between good and evil
I’m just absent
I am emotionally detached or unavailable
More than ever
More emotionally distant than ever
Can’t outrun my head
I cannot escape my thoughts or emotions
So I’ll tell myself
I will convince myself that I have the right to feel this way
I have a right to feel this way
Acceptance of personal emotions and experiences
So I stepped into the maze
I entered a confusing and complicated situation
And all it did was take
It only took from me, causing loss or hardship
And now on long way from all I know
I am far from everything familiar
I give up, admitting defeat or submission
I’m incomplete
I feel incomplete or lacking
I’ve had all I can take
I have reached my limit
So take me in pieces.
I am broken or in disarray
