Here For You Lyrics - Singles - Eyedea

Were all born into this river without knowing how to swim 

And eventually we learn how to keep this water under our chins 

Some times this rivers so cold to be in 

Freezing my soul, solidifying my skin 

Regardless of how far I see, I never see my travels end 

Were carried by the current, being driven by the wind 

The scenery we pass, we'll never see again 

So we store it up as memories and don't let go of them 

Were under a spell thinking the river should go straight 

We set goals and desires to control our own fate 

But all the pain we experience is a result of our expectations 

Because it's the rivers nature to twist and turn 

That shit can burn 

And I know it 

I have the same conflict 

But I try to sit and flow with this rivers natural process 

And sometimes when I watch myself float downstream 

I see the beauty of it all, and it feels like a dream 

And at that time I appreciate the rivers course 

Some call it God, reality, momentum, force 

I stare up at the naked moon, and she stares down at me 

Outside thoughts boundaries, I'm all I look outward to see. 

The universe is not something separate from yourself 

I know you feel alone, but that's why I'm here to help 

I know you feel alone, but just look up at the stars 

And everything that is out there is what you really are 

We gotta learn to see the beauty in each moment of life 

Everyone has different paths and we're seeking the light 

The world is divided between peasants and kings 

But the truth is everyone is looking for the same thing 

Now I want you to know 

The role you play is part of the whole 

Without you it couldn't be, and I mean that with compassion 

So if you ever need anything, I mean anything at all 

I'm here for you; all you gotta do is ask man 

I'm here for you, in the same way that you're here for me 

Each person in an intricate piece of infinity 

I feel that if you could see what I see 

Then we as humanity could be free 

I'm here for you, not for any self centered reasons 

But because existence is interdependent and all is related, 

Connected as different manifestations of one single mind 

You ain't isolated from the world even though it feels like that sometimes 

I see the hurt when I look into your eyes 

How you struggle to hold it and keep in bundled inside 

It drives a dull blade deep in my heart; it makes me want to cry 

So I offer you a hand to help wash away the rainy skies 

I'm running out of words, but I haven't yet made my message clear 

So if none of this makes sense, I just want you to know I'm here 

As a musician, as a friend, as a teacher, as a student 

To grow and realize that everything's in constant movement 

Each problem that we face is just a part of this movement 

It seems helpless, but if we stick together we'll get through it 

And return to the essence from which we've been uprooted 

And wake humanity from these illusions 

The second you can look into the sky and see your own reflection 

You know your headed in the right direction 

The river's ride ain't always smooth, but with it I live 

And everything is perfect, just the way it is 

We gotta learn to see the beauty in each moment of life 

Everyone has different paths and we're seeking the light 

The world is divided between peasants and kings 

But the truth is everybody's looking for the same thing 

Now I want you to know 

The role you play is part of the whole 

Without you it couldn't be, and I mean that with compassion 

So if you ever need anything, I mean anything at all 

I'm here for you; all you gotta do is ask man 

I'm here for you; all you gotta do is ask man 

I'm here for you; all you gotta do is ask man
