there are no words to describe this song. i love it...

we're all born into this river without knowing how to swim,
and eventually, we learn how to keep the water under our chins.
sometimes this river is so cold to be in
freezing my soul, solidifying my skin.
regardless of how far i see, i never see my travels in.
we're carried by the current, being driven by the wind.
the scenery we pass, we'll never see again;
so we store it up as memories and don't let go of them.
we're under a spell, thinking that the river should go straight.
he said, "holds and desire to control our own fate,"
but all the pain we experience as a result of our expectations
because it's the rivers nature to twist and turn.
the shit can burn, and i know it.
i have the same conflict,
but i try to sit and flow with this river's natural process,
and sometimes when i watch myself float downstream,
i see the beauty of it all, and it feels like a dream,
and at that time i appreciate the rivers course,
some part of god, reality, momentum, force.
i stare up at the naked moon, and she stares down at me.
i'll sight false boundaries and all my powers to see.
the universe is not something separate from yourself.
i know you feel alone, but that's why I'm here to help.
i know you feel alone, but just look up at the stars,
and everything that is out there is what you really are.

we gotta learn to see the beauty in each moment of life.
everyone has different pasts and we're seeking the light.
the world is divided between peasants and kings,
but the truth is everybody is looking for the same thing.
now i want you to know
the role you play is part of the whole.
without you it couldn't be, and i mean that with compassion;
so if you ever need anything, i mean anything at all.
i'm here for you; all you gotta do is ask, man.
i'm here for you, in the same way that you're here for me.
each person in an intricate piece of infinity.
i feel that if you could see what i see,
then we as humanity could be free.
i'm here for you, not for any self centered reasons
because existence is interdependent and all related,
connected in its different manifestations of one single mind.
you ain't isolated from the world even though it feels like that sometimes.

i see the hurt when i look into your eyes,
how you struggle to hold it and keep it bundled inside.
it drives a dull blade deep in my heart; it makes me want to cry.
so i offer you a hand to help you wash away the rainy skies.
i'm running out of words, but i haven't yet made my message clear;
so if none of this makes sense, i just want you to know i'm here,
as a musician, as a friend, as a teacher, as a student
to grow and realize that everything is in constant movement;
each problem that we face is just a part of this movement.
it seems helpless, but if we stick together, we'll get through it
and return to the essence from which we've been uprooted
and wake humanity from these illusions.
the second you can look into the sky and see your own reflection,
you know your headed in the right direction.
the river riding always moves, but with it, i live,
and everything is perfect just the way it is.

we gotta learn to see the beauty in each moment of life.
everyone has different pasts and we're seeking the light.
the world is divided between peasants and kings,
but the truth is everybody is looking for the same thing.
now i want you to know
the role you play is part of the whole.
without you it couldn't be, and i mean that with compassion;
so if you ever need anything, i mean anything at all.
i'm here for you; all you gotta do is ask, man.

eyedea - here for you
