Wasi River Rest

[Banjo warning riff]
(Soft banjo lull, river hum, breathe in, breathe out)

[Verse 1]
Clocked out, boots off, by the shoreline glow,
Paper cuts fading where the cool waves flow.
All-day grind was heavy, but I won’t implode,
Let the ripples smooth out every overload.
Stress on the ledger, but I ease my chest,
Turn the checklist into space for rest.
From the shop floor buzz to the crickets’ song,
I’m learning how to stay here, even when it’s long.

[Pre-Chorus]
We name the weight so it don’t take hold,
Lay it on the current like a skipping stone.
We breathe through the stories that we once confessed,
Turn the battle plan into a wellness quest.

[Chorus]
Wasi River rest, let the worries drift away,
Not in anger, but in light at the end of the day.
We got hazards, controls, and banjo rolls in time,
But tonight we heal the heart, let the soft bells chime.
We don’t bury the signal in the noise we’ve known,
We just hum with the water in a gentle tone.
Wasi River rest, where the wild thoughts calm,
Every tired worker finds a quiet psalm.

[Verse 2]
Forms in a folder, locked back at the yard,
Here it’s only moonbeams on an old post card.
Phone on silent, sky wide open and clear,
Let the pines keep watch while we park our fear.
Property lines and chaos fade behind the trees,
Policies loosen in the evening breeze.
From the psychosocial hazard rodeo,
To a blanket on the bank where the soft winds blow.

[Chorus]
Wasi River rest, let the worries drift away,
Not in anger, but in light at the end of the day.
We got hazards, controls, and banjo rolls in time,
But tonight we heal the heart, let the soft bells chime.
We don’t bury the signal in the noise we’ve known,
We just hum with the water in a gentle tone.
Wasi River rest, where the wild thoughts calm,
Every tired worker finds a quiet psalm.

[Breakdown]
(Yeah, hush that mind, let the steel toes cool)
(Soft stomp, slow clap, peaceful rule)
Document the risk, then kick the drum so slow,
Let the heartbeat line be the tempo.
Past-day pressure in a mellow sway,
Turn the roar of the week to a low bouquet.

[Bridge]
We map out the load so it don’t map us,
Trade the grind for a gentle chorus.
From the spill of grief to the steady flow,
We learn to let the tight fists loosen and go.
In this riverside safety story we write,
We hold each other’s shadows with a softer light.

[Final Chorus]
Wasi River rest, let the worries drift away,
Not in anger, but in light at the end of the day.
We got hazards, controls, and banjo rolls in time,
Turning all that static to a soothing chime.
We don’t bury the signal in the noise we’ve known,
We just hum with the water in a gentle tone.
Wasi River rest, where the wild thoughts calm,
Every tired worker finds a quiet psalm.
Wasi River rest, northern stars above,
Turn the long week’s weight into quiet love.

[Outro]
(Soft banjo fade, low fiddle sigh)
River breathing slow while the night slips by.
One last chord on the shoreline crest,
Wasi River rest, Wasi River rest.
