Single by Brendan Bonsack

In the river

With my brothers

Playing sinking down

And shouting underwater

White teeth bared

Air enspheared

And spiral scrambling

Up towards the light

Understanding nothing but

The precipice of drowning

The long game

Stretched between our lungs

Playing water

With my brothers

Who can touch the

River's floor?

The magnet dark

Biting ice rush

Between our ears

We'll ever find it

Understanding nothing but

The precipice of drowning

The long game

Stretched between our lungs

In the water hole
