Bones In The River

There's bones in the river, cold as the tide

Buried in whispers where the darkness confides

The water runs heavy with the weight of the dead

Echoes of secrets that were never unsaid

Moonlight is dancing on that lonesome stream

But the truth keeps surfacing, like some cruel dream

You can bury the body, keep the lips sealed tight

But guilt is a current that won't sleep at night

Oh, the river it knows, it carries the sin

The flood pulling deeper, drawing you in

No chain can anchor what the truth delivers

It all comes rising

Bones in the river

Years may forget, but the floodwaters speak

Erosion of silence, it's justice they seek

The deeper you sink, the darker it feels

The truth like a chain

You can't ever conceal

Oh, the river it knows, it carries the sin

The flood pulling deeper, drawing you in

No chain can anchor what the truth delivers

It all comes rising

Bones in the river

Hear the whispers, cold and low

Underneath where the cattails grow

No shovel, no lie can keep it below

The river's the keeper of what we all know

Oh, the river it knows, it carries the sin

The flood pulling deeper, drawing you in

No chain can anchor what the truth delivers

It all comes rising

Bones in the river

Oh, the river it knows, it carries the sin

The flood pulling deeper, drawing you in

No chain can anchor what the truth delivers

It all comes rising

Bones in the river

Bones in the river
