lyrics
They say that you barely feel a thing, say that you can hardly notice the cold. Then your clothes they quickly kill you with the weight the water brings.
How is it they claim to even know?
They tell me in an instant it’s done once the moment of decision is past.
I grow less sure every second while the waters grow more calm.
And once more there’s no answer as I ask:
If I were right in the center of the Sacramento River
Would I drown or would I drift until I’m free?
If I fall into the middle of the Sacramento River
Will I sink or will it carry me to sea?
How is it they claim to even know?
They tell me in an instant it’s done once the moment of decision is past.
I grow less sure every second while the waters grow more calm.
And once more there’s no answer as I ask:
If I were right in the center of the Sacramento River
Would I drown or would I drift until I’m free?
If I fall into the middle of the Sacramento River
Will I sink or will it carry me to sea?
