more and more
I can't say no
so afraid
of letting go
if there's something
I can grab
you can bet
I'll pay the tab

counting all the flowers
waste the precious hours
I need to find some peace

all these problems
on my mind
make it hard
for me to think
there is no way
I can stop
my poor brain
is gonna pop

and I don't have a purpose
scattered on the surface
I need to find some peace

whoa-oh-oh-oh

[guitar solo]

and all the broken tethers
we can bring together
I need to find some peace

whoa-oh-oh-oh

I need to find some peace
I need to find some peace

whoa-oh-oh-oh

    General Comment:Barbaric country
    Transient nocturnal country
    Mystic incubus of chaos
    The river takes up its singsong again
    I will go away
    I have come upon decent people
    Distant noises grumbled
    Asking if the evening had heard it

    In the room, a red stagnant wound
    That leaves on my heart—a burning seal
    Who is he who has lit the lamp of the little witch of the bridge?
    Silence
    I—under the sad electric light felt my infinite solitude
    Eyes turned back to the mournful feverish fire that you set ablaze
    So, I still remember you—the landslide—the wind that plays in the valley

    On the distant slope, the triumphant line of young firs listen
    Where the heart is lost—day dreaming …
    “I cannot endure war right now.”

    [paraphrased poetry]

    General Comment:just from what i have gatherd, im think before the making of this album rivers turned his life around and began a more religious life style, but i know he gave up sex, and to my knowledge i would think thats what this song is about. how hard it was to give up sex but he wanted to because without it he knows he will find "peace" it makes sense to me, but you may have a different view.

    General Comment:this song reminds of what Confucious said about first having inner peace, then there can be peace in the whole world. but it all starts with having peace within oneself.

    General Comment:Idk, to me this is what i got out of it. Kinda clear to me, but this is how i understood it. Seems to me that he's talking about being with his girl or w/e, and that they need to break up or something, but he can't let go. so he's trying to find some peace, because he needs to let go, but can't. idk. maybe im way off...?
