Lead you over to the water,
Said ’hold it down until it does not breathe.’
Lead you over to the water,
Tried drowning it on dry land for too long,
Said hold it down until it does not breathe.
But it was not supposed to be.
Tried drowning it on dry land for too long,
This recklessness might kill you,
But it was not supposed to be.
But I know you would miss it if it died.
This recklessness might kill you,
This recklessness is not a curse,
But I know you would miss it if it died.
It’s just the old convictions runnin’ out of time.
This recklessness is not a curse,
It’s just the old convictions runnin’ out of time.
Pass me on over,
Let it pass me by.
Pass me on over,
We’ll keep on movin’,
Let it pass me by.
Leave this shit behind.
We’ll keep on movin’,
Take all our money,
Leave this shit behind.
But ya know we’ll never quit.
Take all our money,
Pass me on over,
But ya know we’ll never quit.
But don’t pass,
Pass me on over,
Me back to this.
But don’t pass,
Me back to this.
Birds on empty watertowers,
Owned it all but did not own a thing.
Birds on empty watertowers,
Prisoners of dry land for to long,
Owned it all but did not own a thing.
Until only our love remained.
Prisoners of dry land for to long,
By this river, we laugh loud
Until only our love remained.
And leave for dead what we cannot explain.
By this river, we laugh loud
Head out to the hiding place,
And leave for dead what we cannot explain.
Covered in the strong arms of the aspen trees.
Head out to the hiding place,
Covered in the strong arms of the aspen trees.
Pass me on over,
Let it pass me by.
Pass me on over,
We’ll keep on movin’,
Let it pass me by.
Leave this shit behind.
We’ll keep on movin’,
Take all our money,
Leave this shit behind.
But ya know we’ll never quit.
Take all our money,
Pass me on over,
But ya know we’ll never quit.
But don’t pass,
Pass me on over,
Me back to this.
But don’t pass,
Me back to this.
