Take me down to the water
Gonna wash this whole damn thing away
I'm somebody's daughter
Far from home, I need a place to stay
You see me down at the riverside
Where the water's deep and the river runs wide
My heart's grown colder
Got a voice that's ringing inside my head saying
Hey girl, push it to the side
Hitch another ride
Put a lid on it
Hey girl, gotta give it time
It'll be fine
We can deal with it
♪
Self-preservation
Well, shut my mouth, I don't react
No conversation
Lost too much that I can't get back
You see me up on the table-top
Dancing on the bar
Hanging from the chandeliers
The problem is, well, I just won't stop
In a world where they won't dry your tears, oh
Hey girl, push it to the side
Hitch another ride
Put a lid on it
Hey girl, gotta give it time
It'll be fine
We can deal with it
I'll be my own storyteller
Live my life in acappella (live my life)
