THE LYRICS:
Dip
your toes into the river and see what you find
Dip your toes into the river change your state of mind
You are afraid of yourself I know
But it is these fears that will help you to grow
Dip your toes into the river it’ll do you no harm
(I’ve done so much harm)
Dip your toes into the river it’s time to disarm
(The water is so warm)
We are afraid of ourselves, I know
Isn’t it time to let these fears go?
I broke so many windows by throwing stones of rage
I put up so many fences to distance myself from the pain
You become bitter, angry, helpless, and unsatisfied
But inside yourself is the passion to turn to tide
Dip your toes into the river and see what you find
Dip your toes into the river change your state of mind
Change your mind - change your mind
Change your mind
Leave your fears behind
Leave your fear behind
