Until the Levee

I see a ghost out on the water
I swear it has my face
I bend and drink the lonely down, the lonely down
There’s trouble on the river
And whispers in the trees
I can feel it all around, all around
I’m gonna stand, I’m gonna stand here in the ache
Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks
I’m gonna wade up past the shallows
And brave the bitter taste
Gonna drink the lonely down, the lonely down
Let the current take me over
Let the ruin turn to wine
I can feel it all around, all around
I’m gonna stand, I’m gonna stand here in the ache
Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks
I’m gonna stand, I’m gonna stand here in the ache, the ache, the ache
So go on and let it break
Take all I can take
I’m gonna stand, I’m gonna stand here in the ache
Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks
I’m gonna stand, I’m gonna stand here in the ache
Until the levee, until the levee on my heart breaks
