I'd rather be lost in a river
Than to be lost in somebodys arms
I'd rather let them call me sinner
Than to drive in your car
In your car, in your car
They found some stuff in the river
Some stuff that belonged to me once
They found a unused map
That led to the things I never had.
I never had, I never had
And when they come close enough to see me
Oh I beg them to walk away
‘Cause I pray for a lot more than for a home
Where all I can do is stay
Stay, stay, stay, stay
I searched for a friend in the river
I didn't realize I was all alone
So on a Monday I drowned in the river
‘Cause nobody was able to bring me home.
