lyrics

V1
A manmade thing lived in a dream
I am a vehicle of escape
Willows stitched in the hem
Of your muddiest, darkest artery
Cut me down to set you free
Cuz running away should be cheap.

Bridge
The Ohio is a four-letter word
All other rivers run towards.

Ch1
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
One river never runs dry
Push off from the bank and the raft takes flight
Out on dark waters you’re a planet amongst the skies
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
One river never runs dry.

V2
Clear water you can see through
Damages just like a child
But Midwest, we infest
Coffee and cream doesn’t seem
To let us through, stares right back you
You can look to the stars
But this, this will take you far.

Bridge
The Ohio is a four-letter word
All other rivers run towards.

Ch2
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
One river never runs dry
Push off from the bank and the raft takes flight
Out on dark waters you’re a planet amongst the skies
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
One river never runs dry.

Ending
M-I-S-S-I-S-S-I-P-P-I
This raft takes you to your next life.
