Thrill Lyrics
Blue water
Black bible
Old river
Come quietly
Just asking
A glass of water
They don’t know me
Don’t try me
Nobody gonna pick me up
I’m falling down
And I’m 5th St. bound
Now nobody wanna fill me up
I’ve fallen down
None of my friends around
Seen it on the news
Looked like me and you
Did they hear me calling?
Blue water
Black rider
Keep on rolling
Keep on riding
Old silver
Old Tar River
Keep running
Black water
Old river
That old Tar River
Just keeps rising
Inside me
Nobody gonna pick me up
I’ve fallen down
And I’m 5th St. bound
Seen it on the news
Some never seem to lose
They say, the rest are fallen
I seen it on the news
It wasn’t mine to lose
Do they hear me calling?
(Heavy this leans inside me)
Keep Rising
(The river seethes)
(Parting the ground beneath me)
Keep Rising
(Just like the sea)
O Tar River
(Watching it washing over)
Tar River
(The broken reeds)
It grows inside me
(Gambling the rushing water)
Keeps on running
(Over me)
Keeps rising
(Over me)
Keeps rising
(Over me)
(Over me)
Keeps rising
Keep Rising
Black bible
Old river
Come quietly
A glass of water
They don’t know me
Don’t try me
I’m falling down
And I’m 5th St. bound
Now nobody wanna fill me up
None of my friends around
Looked like me and you
Black rider
Keep on rolling
Keep on riding
Old Tar River
Keep running
Black water
That old Tar River
Just keeps rising
Inside me
I’ve fallen down
And I’m 5th St. bound
Some never seem to lose
They say, the rest are fallen
It wasn’t mine to lose
Do they hear me calling?
Keep Rising
(The river seethes)
(Parting the ground beneath me)
Keep Rising
(Just like the sea)
(Watching it washing over)
Tar River
(The broken reeds)
It grows inside me
(Gambling the rushing water)
(Over me)
Keeps rising
(Over me)
Keeps rising
(Over me)
(Over me)
Keeps rising

"Old Tar River", "Black water" confused sad feeling "keeps rising" even though willing pretend happy to the public (bound for "5th Street" aka Broadway aka acting)
Even though "falling down" and ignored, there is a "Don't try me" determination to "Keep rising" above the depression with thrills like surfing "Blue water" with "Black rider" wetsuit, or holding out for "Old silver" inheritance, or a "Black bible" as a symbol of hope and purpose
