Banks Of The Deep End Lyrics - Gov't Mule

On the banks of the deep end 

Where your soul is your best friend 

Searching for a reason 

To go astray 

Wild dreams turn to nightmares 

Silver clouds turn to golden stairs 

And everything that you used to know 

Is slipping away 

Here I've got my puzzle-piece 

Only got it for a short term lease 

No time for asking 

No going back to get hurt 

I take a little from the mixture 

Try to fit it into the picture 

Got a place where you're standing 

Dig your shoes into the dirt

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Trying hard to get back 

Runnin' on the stones 

Put you on my shoulders 

We can be the only one 

See the world's still spinning 'round 

Gettin' dizzy when we look 

There's a reason to be home 

There's a feeling when you smile 

But it feels like it might take over 

This feeling deep inside 

And there's a distance down the line 

Far away from the station 

We can leave it all behind 

On a rolling creation 

Photos 

Sit away from the window 

And lock the door 

Can't you learn from the last time 

And the time before 

See the world's still spinning 'round 

Gettin' dizzy when we look 

Got to leave town 

To see the yellow flowers bloom 

Sun going down 

It's gonna be rising soon 

On the banks of the deep end 

Twisted as a riverbend 

Searching for a reason to go astray 

You couldn't hire twenty-five men 

To do what the man could do 

Just the sound of his walking 

Could split the whole damn town in two 

Into the night full of shadows 

He still walks when the thunder rolls 

This river ain't shallow 

Reminds us that the bell still tolls 

Bears in the kitchen 

Tigers on TV 

The singer's pretending 

That this song's for me 

See the world's still spinning 'round 

Gettin' dizzy when we look 

You took a wrong turn 

Down by the waterline 

I heard they had to drag you off the sand 

Find a dune and the wind will miss you 

Hold on to a piece of dry land 

Got to hold on to a piece of dry land 

Got to hold on to a piece of dry land 

On the banks of the deep end 

Where I lost my best friend 

Searching for a reason to go astray
