Deep Down

When I talk about control
My throat gets sore and swole
When I talk about what makes me mad
My hands ball into fists
There must be something bad
Deep down
Deep down, Deep down
There must be something bad and broken
Deep, deep down
When I think about what makes me smile
It doesn’t take too long to cross the aisle
Before I make a joyful noise, I’m living for my lover’s voice
From the wreckage in my core
My triumphs and my oldest scores
Deep down, deep down
There must be something worth preserving
Deep, deep down
Saturday
The sun is glowing
And life is easy
The days are frozen
(But the river still is flowing)
Saturday
The sun is glowing
And life is easy
The days are frozen
But the river still is flowing
Deep, deep down
A dark river still flowing
Miles underground
