The River
Q.Stone Lyrics

It's time for you to leave so I can have my space
I need you to go away so that I can have some time to myself.

But let's be honest I don't want that, just want control back
Honestly, I don't actually want you to leave, I just want to have control over the situation again.

Had a lot to drink so wicked tongues turn to wicked games
After drinking a lot, people start playing games and saying hurtful things.

I'm trying not to think about it
I am deliberately trying not to think about the situation because it's overwhelming.

But this just turns into something else
But every time we interact, things escalate and get out of control.

I'm a savage, I'm weak
I am both tough and vulnerable at the same time.

I get playful, pull you in
I flirt and tease you, trying to get you to engage with me.

Impatient, I pull out
But then I get impatient and push you away again.

We took it to the river and didn't come back
We went somewhere to be alone and things escalated to a point where we lost control completely.

No strings between you and me
There are no emotional attachments between us.

but the skin that cracked under the pressure
But the physical connection between us was intense and got rough.

And opened itself up to the elements
The intensity of our connection left us exposed and vulnerable.

I'll wait all night, I'll wait all night
I am willing to wait as long as it takes.

Get fucked go blind
Let's have wild and crazy sex.

We could go all night
We could have sex for hours without getting tired.

Get high and come over if you want to
If you want to hang out with me, come over and let's do drugs together.

You can talk your ego
You can talk a big game and try to impress me with your confidence.

But you're fucking with a queen
But you're dealing with someone who is powerful and in control.

Don't bother trying to impress me
It's pointless to try to impress me because I already know how great I am.

I dare you to lose it all, we all know I'm your best kept secret
I challenge you to take a risk and pursue me, even though it might be risky. Everyone knows that I'm the one you really want.

It's the tricks of the game that kept you going
You've been playing games to keep yourself interested in me.

But I think you found your equal
But I think I'm just as good at the game as you are and we're evenly matched.

I heard your throat sing when you got under my skin
I could feel the intensity of your desire when we were physically close.

I'm always trying to be something more
I'm always striving to improve myself and be better.

I could have done this all on my own
I am fully capable of taking care of myself and being independent.

I don't need you, I just wanted some more
I don't necessarily need you in my life, but I enjoyed our connection and want to experience it more.
