Lyric discussion by Eggman6 

Cover art for Dry The River lyrics by Maylene and the Sons of Disaster

i know they are a Christian band but i believe the is one of the few songs that arnt about god or jesus

i believe its about writers block strangely enough, see i write all the lyrics for my band and after reading this song i felt like he was writing, when he really couldn't bring him self to write so he started writing about how he felt about his block

its a rather creative thing i've done it my slef a few times but it really got me in these lines

(verse 1) Saw my life flash before my eyes I've kissed the dark horse Random lines not sure if they came out right

and this line

verse 3

Been uneasy so long I feel we're not alone Someone needs to speak to you it feels they're inside me

the first part is like obvious, i dont really think i need to dig in to deep there

the second part need a lil digging but not much like hes uneasy because his inspiration has left, he cannot think of anything to put on paper

"Someone needs to speak to you it feels they're inside me"

the you i think is his paper, he is saying that all the thoughts are in his head all the words he needs to say but for some reason his pen will not write them on the paper (speak to the paper)

maybe im 100% right maybe im way off

but from a writers point of view i think thats what hes trying to get out
