The Loonatics - River

★ chorus: oreo ★
I've been a liar, been a thief
Been a lover, been a cheat
All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me
Well, little one, i don't want to admit to something
If all it's gonna cause is pain
Truth and my lies right now are falling like the rain
So let the river run

★ verse 1: black klaw ★
He's stayin' home with his head down, said "how?"
Guitar necks and kiss hats, mismatched
On his breath's bud light, he's an alcoholic
And she just wants to stay away and get back
Cat-and-mouse game, she's watching, about to silence his ass
She keeps ignoring all his discord chats
And i guess she's just movin' on to the next
Actually, my last chick left me and she has what my friend lacks
'causе she loves ghosting, no reply
And you can't bе with no silent girl, even i know this
She wants to stab him in the back, her plan's devising
Knife in hand, says their relationship isn't even set up straight
So she's been out of the web lately
Says maybe she'll be mine one day, she'll have a change of heart
And i know she's using me, trying to play me, i kinda care
Hi kinley, but i shoulda said "bye kinley"
Today i'm over it, but last night i felt like shit

★ chorus: oreo ★
I've been a liar, been a thief
Been a lover, been a cheat
All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me
Well, little one, i don't want to admit to something
If all it's gonna cause is pain
The truth and my lies now are falling like the rain
So let the river run

★ verse 2: black klaw ★
One sentence turned into no sentence
It was "come sunlight, scram," and we'll never see each other hugging, and...
I found out, now i feel deserted and used
'cause she left, so what? it's not the very first partner i had
Now how am i supposed to tell this girl that we're through?
It's hard to find the words, i'm aloof, nervous, and hoo
Don't want this to hurt, but i need to see the truth
Trying not to take it personal, i just can't say this in person to you
So i revert to the studio, like hole-in-the-wall diners
Don't have to be reserved in a booth
I just feel like the person who i'm turning into's
Irreversible, i preyed on you like it's church at the pew
And now i don't know you, i don't want you
Took advantage in my thirst to pursue
Why do i do this dirt that i do?
Get on my soapbox and preach, my sermon and speech
Detergent and bleach is burnin' the wound
Fuck, it hurts
So much pain i'll never know i'll feel
In too deep, liquid in my skin seeps
Now what do i do? the only way to deal with this is to take out my own life

★ chorus: oreo ★
I've been a liar, been a thief
Been a lover, been a cheat
All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me
Well, little one, i don't want to admit to something
If all it's gonna cause is pain
The truth and my lies now are falling like the rain
So let the river run

★ bridge: black klaw (oreo) ★
My name's (ooh), my name's (ooh)
River (ooh), river run
Call me (ooh), call me (ooh)
River (ooh), we'll let the river run

★ instrumental break ★

★ spoken word: oreo ★
Turns out
All the world's a stage
And women are mere players
Suffering and then darkness
That's what comes in life
There's no escape
It's a part of it
The only way to live through it is grin and bear it
Plus… relationships don't last forever
It all has to end one day
We're all gonna die anyway….

I've been a liar, been a thief
Been a lover, been a cheat
All my sins need holy water, feel it washing over me
Well, little one (i'm sorry)
I don't want to admit to something (i fucked up)
If all it's gonna cause is pain
The truth and my lies now are falling like the rain
So let the river run
