I spent the last few years runnin' through my mind
Trying to figure out what I was gonna do
With my life and my time
It seems to me things grow cloudier each day
I can't seem to drink enough
And I can't even find the words to say
Time is all I have
And my patience will soon be run down
And I'm growing so damn old
Chorus:
I'm drowning in a river
That runs deeper and deeper
Flowing through the corners of my mind
In a world full of anger
It seems there is nowhere
I can run to when I'm scared and I'm tired
Well I'm tired of being alone
I wanna go home
I been told by a long line of friends
Son you look run down
Like you're at your rope's end
Hey but that's alright
They said come with us
And we will take you far away
Drink Wild Turkey, smoke cigars, pick guitar, and play
Play all damn day
Time is all I need
And my time will soon set me free
And I'm growing so damn old
Chorus:
I'm drowning in a river
That runs deeper and deeper
Flowing through the corners of my mind
In a world full of anger
It seems there is nowhere
I can run to when I'm scared and I'm tired
Well I'm tired of being alone
I wanna go home
Time is all I need
And my time will soon set me free
And I'm growing so damn old
Chorus:
I'm drowning in a river
That runs deeper and deeper
Flowing through the corners of my mind
In a world full of anger
It seems there is nowhere
I can run to when I'm scared and I'm tired
Well I'm tired of being alone
I wanna go home
