Backstory:
The lyrics came from word starts I'd had for a few years that never materialized into anything. Apparently it was waiting for Marissa to work her magic on it!
Lyrics:
SOMETHING IN THE RIVER
V1
Something in the river
Sunk by lies
Something in the river
Don’t wanna rise
Shake and shiver
Deep and cold
If the secret gets much deeper
Ain’t nuthin’ gonna save my soul
V2
Something in the river
Can’t be seen
Something in the river
(will) be the end of me
Something wicked
Has taken hold
If the secret gets much deeper
Ain’t ‘nuthin gonna save my soul
Bridge
You can keep your silence, try to hide
Whisper dark sweet alibis
Push it all down, yeah, you can try
But under the surface, feel it rise…
Feel it rise, feel it rise, feel it rise
(Instrumental)
V3
Something in the river
Meant to stay
Something in the river
Won’t wash away
Bitter liquor
Swallowed whole
If the secret gets much deeper
Ain’t nuthin’ gonna save my soul
Outro
Save my soul, save my soul
If the secret gets much deeper
Ain’t nuthin’ gonna save my soul
