And I feel my heart gone drift away
But I hold my tongue
If I hold my pose for long enough
Would the blood still run
And I feel my life done slip away
And I come undone
But I'll dream of thunder anyway
Till the lightning comes
And I scream myself to sleep again
Till my throat goes numb
And it seems like only yesterday
It was just a hum
And I dream a river runaway
But I'm under thumbs
If I held my own hand long enough
Would my song be sung
And I feel my heart go drift astray
But I got my lungs
So I'll keep on singing anyway
Till the morning comes
