Down by the River

歌詞

My sweet prince, you used to love a lady You wrote poems for her, you were so kind Now she's hearing you're becoming crazy That you've lost grip of your amazing mind And she tastes sorrow as youtold her Love is vain, she'd better be far away A thousand needles stuck in her tired heart The last thing she expected you to say They say it was him to take away your life Beloved father I'm going to meet you again Everyone but this river has let me down So I just let me drown I let the river flow over A life driven by others I let the water cover This burden of troubles Flows my body among the flowers Thank you, branch, wooden savior I watch me drown, finally free Now I'm dying I start to breathe My dear brother, please don't you suffer I'll be fine, you'll always be this strong It's so hard to face the loss of everything That gave you meaning to belong In this place, this cold and rotten nation Twenty years of blind obedience to what you all told I can't go on without an explanation Wanna leave behind all the evil of this world Still in death I can't find my peaceful sleep I've been stumentalized against what made me real I've set free my head, they labeled me just mad These flowers be my crown I let the river flow over A life driven by others I let the water cover This burden of troubles Flows my body among the flowers Thank you, branch, wooden savior I watch me drown, finally free Now I'm dying I start to breathe I let the river flow over me.. I see teared eyes around, Around my grave Who're you talking to, love? The skull you hold won't speak You see, my flesh, so solid Now is melting To die, to sleep, to dream Was my choice I let the river flow over A life driven by others I let the water cover This burden of troubles Flows my body among the flowers Thank you, branch, wooden savior I watch me drown, finally free Now I'm dying I start to breathe
