[Verse 1]
Out across the cities, I see buildings burn into piles
And watch the world in wonder as mountains turn into tiles
And trees losing their leaves, and our faces becoming tired
I wish I could discover something that doesn't expire

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Come, and stumble me

[Chorus]
Take me river, carry me far
Lead me river, like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Put me in the undertow

[Verse 2]
Such are the things that make a kingdom rumble and shatter
The same dynamic that another day would never matter
It really just depends on who's giving and who's receiving
And things that don't make sense are always a little deceiving

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Come, and humble me

[Chorus]
Take me river, carry me far
Lead me river, like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Put me in the undertow
[Bridge]
I want to go where you're going
A follower, following
Changing, but never changed
Claiming, but never claimed

[Chorus]
Take me river, carry me far
Lead me river, like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Put me in the undertow
Take me river, carry me far
Lead me river, like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Put me in the undertow

[Outro]
Take me river, carry me far
Lead me river, like a mother
Take me over to some other unknown
Put me in the undertow
