[Verse 1]
If I sit by the river
Maybe the answer will come to me in a vision
So I'll close my eyes on the train
And daydream a new life by myself in Berlin
[Pre-Chorus]
And if I knew, if I knew
That everything I did would matter so fast
I would do it all the same
'Cause I'll never grow up, but I'm losing my hair
And it doesn't matter if I'm going nowhere
[Chorus]
If I stand this way maybe I can make myself look thinner
If we all quit the game, everyone will feel like a winner
And I'm holding your hand еven though it's going ice cold
'Cause I'm lazy and I know
What happеns if I let it go
[Verse 2]
And if I wait by the river
Maybe its sound will numb my aching nerves like a drug
'Cause I'll never grow up, but I'm losing all my hair
Repeating to myself that this time I've run out of air
[Pre-Chorus]
And if I knew, if I knew
That everything I did would matter so fast
Maybe I'd've pushed up on the glass
'Cause I'm losing but mind but I don't t think I care
My river flows, but it’s going nowhere
[Chorus]
If I stand this way maybe I can make myself look thinner
If we all quit the game, everyone will feel like a winner
And I'm holding your hand even though it's going ice cold
'Cause I'm lazy and I know
What happens if I let it go
[Outro]
If I stand up straight maybe I can make myself feel better
If I don't move today, I can just blame it on the weather
'Cause you're holding my hand even though I wanna let go
'Cause I'm lazy and I know where my river really flows
