I don't need to understand what this world is all about |
|
I don't need to find a thing that will show me there ain't much to think about |
|
If I tell you what I did and I heal, all my sins will be absolved |
|
But there ain't nothing that I've ever done that I wouldn't just leave unresolved |
|
That's why I go to the river |
|
But the river don't wash me clean |
|
I don't need to understand what the world thinks of me |
|
And I ain't never going to change because of something that you're never gonna be |
|
I don't care about what you believe, everything you tell me that I'm not |
|
I don't think that you can judge me, 'cause I'm not the only one that you forgot |
|
That's why I go to the river |
|
But the river don't wash me clean |
|
I don't need to understand what the world wants from me |
|
I don't even want to know what you always wanted me to be |
|
If you listen and you find that I never really cared about what you think of me |
|
And I fully comprehend that I never did become the man you wanted me to be |
|
That's why I go to the river |
|
But the river don't wash me clean |
