Dark River Lyrics by Lydia Luce

Dark River

2020

[Verse 1]
There are those in your life who will see you as a light
With an ever glowing flame to share
They put me on a pedestal and I gave them everything
Now I'm waking slowly, with an empty feeling

[Pre-Chorus]
Grow against the heavy winds
And burn your own fire

[Chorus]
I go down to the dark river, they can’t see me there
I’m gonna drink ’til my belly’s full
I pour it out when they need my help
I pour it out, I pour it out
But please, won’t you save some for me?

[Verse 2]
When I hunger for affection after pushing you away
I tend to give a little more when I am broken
I’m filling up a void with a wall of crowded noise
When I know I should be still and quiet

[Pre-Chorus]
Grow against the heavy winds
And burn your own fire

[Chorus]
I go down to the dark river, they can’t see me there
I’m gonna drink ’til my belly’s full
I pour it out when they need my help
I pour it out, I pour it out
But please, won’t you save some for me?
Please, won’t you save some for me?

[Bridge]
Oh, I will go silently
I’ll wade through currents wild
And only the moon can keep a secret with a smile

[Chorus]
Oh, I go down to the dark river, they can’t see me there
I’m gonna drink ’til my belly’s full
Pour it out when they need my help
I pour it out, I pour it out
But please, won’t you save some for me?
Please, won’t you save some for me?
