Drag This River

Quick, burn it down to the wick
Burn it down to the heart
So the ending can startHere, behind the riverhaus door
With an unloaded gun
And an unsettled scoreWell I'll never drag this river
I'll never drag this river X2
I'll never drag this river downYou, nothin' comes to you slow
Nothin' comes to you hard
Though you beg like you're hardAnd me, don't shake the barrel ar me
And don't treat idle threats
Like you treat all your friendsWell I'll never drag this river
I'll never drag this river X2
I'll never drag this river downAnd if you walk out that door
Don't come back
Because there'll be no doorAnd if you walk out that door
Silence greets you
Silence, will be yoursI hear ya callin' from a long distant shore
But you won't come back, [well / 'cause] you can't come backThe water's risin' and the levee is not sure
And you won't be found, no you can't be foundDrag this river down
