John Lowell Anderson - No Matter

I’ll borrow till I’m done
Tomorrow’s just another sun
I hear the whisper of a gun
My dear I can’t keep up

Running out of ways to find my name
It’s hiding in the cracks in the fray
And the river runs no matter what I say
No matter if I stay

Surrender all I ever knew
Pretender tell me something true
I’m ending, lightening on the flume
Remember all I said I’d do

Running out of bricks to build my home
This darkness is all I’ve ever known
And the river runs no matter what I say
No matter if I stay

It seems like time stopped for a drink
Handed my a bit of him to think
About all the folks who keep my around
Tell me that my songs make them proud

Running out of names to call my love
For every friend who’s pulled me from the mud
And the river runs no matter what I say
No matter if I stay

Heaviness is just another name
For the meaning that I look for everyday
Sometimes it feels like I could drown
Under the weight of the water

Running out of excuses this time
And I’ve never really written a decent lie
And the river runs no matter what I say
No matter if I stay
