St. Lawrence River

Smells on the air, see there it's crushing the final impression

The stains on the paper where words fell like water

Unearth all the changes that never did matter

I think it's beginning to freeze here

Caught in the rage and the fire of things

All the brightness that burns me

Fumbling through like a child in the dark

When the nakedness comes I am shocked by the color

The glorious weight of your skin

Comes alive and I never thought we'd make it back so soon

Might be nice but I knew you'd be your own destroyer

Comes a time and I always thought I'd make it up to you

Here please forgive me, could we escape? All the bitterness

Piled upon bitterness, held in the face of the things

That I don't understand, intellectualize over and over

This helplessness suits us, funny how quiet has slipped to our corners

Worn all our edges away you are watching, breathing

And baiting, wanting and warming, and cautiously waiting

For some simple signal to creep 'cross your conscience

Uncover redemption and oh, did I mention?

I carried you down to the St. Lawrence River

The banks running dirty, the water's beginning to freeze here

Solid by morning and I'll freeze here, winter by morning

Comes alive and I never thought you'd get me back so soon

Might be nice but it's only if my own destroyer

Comes alive and I always knew I'd make it up to you

Saw on your face such a curious grin

As I let go your hand, I was desperate to hold you again

But you're sinkin' so deep in the water

Outsmarted myself and so easily gave up what I wanted

Solid by morning, what I wanted, winter by morning

Comes alive and I never thought you'd make it up so soon

Might be nice but I always knew you're my destroyer

Comes a time and I always thought I'd make it up to you

Solid by morning and I'll freeze here, winter by morning
