I Am The River

Verse I was called to attention, I was stowed in the line I was told when to wake and rest and that time wasn't mine I was everyone's victim, though I'm holding the gun At some soft-faced stranger, who hates my father's son but who am I? Verse I ve resolved all my reasonings for finally giving up Til i swallowed down this paper and pen and spit this song back up I've been waiting in the background, singing songs to just myself About the world in which we live in, and its deteriorating health Bridge But who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?! Chorus I am the mountain you're running up I am the river that flows and floods, that flows and floods I am the sky, you are wind and dust I'm giving hate but i wanna love, i wanna love it all Guitar solo/pre-verse Verse I have tried every angle, done my job and played my part Until they found me in the corner, lying with my guilty heart Cause I ve been calling all your calls, wondering if its my fault Could i be wrong? could I? Chorus I am the mountain you're running up I am the river that flows and floods, that flows and floods I am the sky, you are wind and dust I'm giving hate but i wanna love, i wanna love it all Breakdown We've been running since the day we were born We learn our lessons or learn to be scorned This is my pen it doesn't write for you Now the chapter is closed, yes its sad but true We've been living everyday we're alive We grow up weak or we learn to survive A name's a name and its all just the same When the bottom falls out we're gonna find whose to blame cuz Chorus I am the mountain you're running up I am the river that flows and floods, that flows and floods I am the sky, you are wind and dust I'm giving hate but i wanna love, i wanna love it all
