Autumn Lies - Old Man River

Tell me how it is
How the world could be so cold
Taking everything
Starting with my weakened soul
Practice what you preach
If you only knew where to start
I won't be the same
Even with the bravest heart
I'm sending my soul down the river
Waiting for what the old man sold
Been lost on emptiness and prayers
Waiting for what my hands can't hold
Old man river
Come whatever may
As moths stuck in the flames
I can't really be
Strong enough to break these chains
Could there be a day
That explains life's tragedy
Finally take a step
And defy lifes gravity
I'm sending my soul down the river
Waiting for what the old man sold
Been lost on emptiness and prayers
Waiting for what my hands can't hold
Been lost on emptiness and prayers
Waiting for what my hands can't hold
Old man river
I'm sending my soul down the river
Waiting for what the old man sold
Been lost on emptiness and prayers
Waiting for what my hands can't hold
Been lost on emptiness and prayers
Waiting for what my hands can't hold
Old man river
