Let the river in

You, beneath the bed, I know all your tricks
I´ve seen you watching
I´ve seen you drifting away
I´ve seen you floating along
I´ve seen you disappear
Now, there ain´t a cloud in sight
And through the snow and the branches
I can count all your teeth
Yeah I can count all your teeth
Now the bed´s on fire and the ceiling´s gone
And your mom and dad still sing the same old song
Don´t scare me off now, I´m your only friend
Don´t scare me off now, I´m your only friend
But now you´re drifting away
Now you´re floating along
And soon you´ll disappear
I closed my eyes and saw my father´s sins
They covered me like a second skin
I peeled them off, and sure I bled a bit
But now I´m free to sink my own damn ship
I cut my branch down from my family tree
To start a fire in the living room
Now the house is just ash, this time it´s sink or swim
Let the river in
If blood is thicker than water
Then let the river in
We might drift a ways, but we´ve got thick skin
Let the river in
If blood is thicker than water
Then let the river in
We might drift a ways, but we´ll find our way again
I´ve seen you watching
I´ve seen you drifting away
I´ve seen you floating along
I´ve seen you disappear
Now, there ain´t a cloud in sight
And through the snow and the branches
I can count all your teeth
Yeah I can count all your teeth
Now the bed´s on fire and the ceiling´s gone
And your mom and dad still sing the same old song
Don´t scare me off now, I´m your only friend
Don´t scare me off now, I´m your only friend
But now you´re drifting away
Now you´re floating along
And soon you´ll disappear
I closed my eyes and saw my father´s sins
They covered me like a second skin
I peeled them off, and sure I bled a bit
But now I´m free to sink my own damn ship
I cut my branch down from my family tree
To start a fire in the living room
Now the house is just ash, this time it´s sink or swim
Let the river in
If blood is thicker than water
Then let the river in
We might drift a ways, but we´ve got thick skin
Let the river in
If blood is thicker than water
Then let the river in
We might drift a ways, but we´ll find our way again
