These things you keep
You better throw 'em all away
You wanna turn your back
On your soulless days
Once you were tethered
And now you are free
Once you were tethered
And now you are free
That was the river
This is the sea

And now if you're feelin' weary
If you've been alone too long
Maybe you've been suffering from
A few too many plans that have gone wrong
And you're trying to remember
How fine your life used to be
Running around, banging your drum like it's 1973
Well, that was the river
This is the sea
Woah!

Now you say you've got trouble
You say you've got pain
You say've got nothing left to believe in
Nothing to hold on to, nothing to trust, nothing but chains
You've been scouring your conscience
LRaking through your memory
Scouring your conscience
Raking through your memory
But that was the river
This is the sea, yeah
Woah
♪
Now I can see you wavering
As you try to decide
You've got a war in your head
And it's tearing you up inside
You're trying to make sense
Of something that you just don't see
Trying to make sense now
And you know you once held the key
But that was the river
And this is the sea
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
♪
Now I hear there's a train
It's coming on down the line
It's yours if you hurry
You've got still enough time
And you don't need no ticket
And you don't pay no fee
Now you don't need no ticket
You don't pay no fee
Because that was the river
And this is the sea
That was the river
This is the sea
And that was the river
This is the sea
And that was the river
River, river, river, river, river, river
And this is the sea

Sea
Hmm
Sea, yeah
Behold the sea
