[Verse 1]
Each winter the creek would overflow and I would undergo a transformation
Feet enveloped in dirty water at the road's edge
Shoulders cloaked in rainwater overhead
[Bridge]
I would throw myself into the new year, making resolutions and cleaning
Old wounds in flood water
Old wounds in flood water
[Chorus]
Keeping peace in this creek where I lay
Let me ease into sleep, lift the weight
Keeping peace in this creek where I lay
Let me ease into sleep, lift the weight
[Verse 2]
Each winter, rain-hood over my head
Hovering beside my freshwater stream
Scream freely, nobody would catch the sound
Belly-up and drowned is how I'd lay
[Bridge]
I would throw myself into the new year, making resolutions and cleaning
Old wounds in flood water
Old wounds in flood water
[Chorus]
Keeping peace in this creek where I lay
Let me ease into sleep, lift the weight
Keeping peace in this creek where I lay
Let me ease into sleep, lift the weight
