Lyrics of Rivers In Your Mouth by Ben Howard
verse
Hold it in, the river in your mouth is pouring out
Water takes the shape of all that it surrounds
Yeah, I know, I've been trying so hard
To keep in time with all of the hours in your day
verse
Hold it in, they wouldn't let you out among the crowd
Not like that, these streets will tear you down
How it is under my skin
Now you are pictures of all you'll ever be
chorus
Oh, I am not myself
Today
I am not feeling
Okay
verse
Hold it in, the river in your mouth is pouring out
Water takes the shape of all that it surrounds
Yeah, I know, I've been trying so hard
To keep in time with all of the sounds that you make
verse
Hold it in, they come at you from both sides of your mind
Thick and thin, these walls you'll always stand behind
I'm sick and tired, oh, I begged for the world to change
But it don't, no, it ain't all you and that's the thing
chorus
Oh, I am not myself today
I am not feeling okay
outro
And you showed me hope amidst the harlequins in spring
And you told me life was learning how to be your friend
Writer(s): Benjamin John Howard
