Surroundings – The River's Edge lyrics
This isn't who I want to be (Take me home)
This isn't where I want to stay (Take me home)

Honestly, I've never felt this way
Unfamiliar faces are all I see
So sick of being stuck inbetween who I am and who I want to be

I cannot run
I cannot escape
I cannot run
I've bitten down upon my tongue until I've tasted blood
Down by the river's edge is where I've made my bed
I'll take this all one day at a time before I fall

This isn't who I want to be

Uninspired, burnt out, used
Broken, battered and bruised
With my heart on my sleeve I'm free to dream
But I don't know how much longer I can bleed if given another chance to bloom
I'd trade away all of my regrets to give myself some growing room
Start this all over, a hard reset

This isn't who I want to be
Start this all over, a hard reset
This isn't where I want to stay
Start this all over

I cannot run
I cannot escape
I cannot run
I've bitten down upon my tongue until I've tasted blood
Down by the river's edge is where I've made my bed
I'll take this all one day at a time before I fall

This isn't who I want to be (Take me home)
This isn't where I want to stay (Take me home)
I cannot run
I cannot escape
Down by the river's edge is where I've made my bed

I am not the man I thought I'd be
But I'm not the man that I despise
I am not the person I once was
But I'm not moving forward

I cannot run
I cannot escape
I cannot run
I've bitten down upon my tongue until I've tasted blood
Down by the river's edge is where I've made my bed
I'll take this all one day at a time before I fall

Take me home
Take me home
