Well, you've got something
That I wanna have
Oh, that something
That makes me go mad
Now you better be careful
You don't wanna see that side
I got so many bodies
Burning inside

Down to the riverside
(Gotta put me deep in the water)

(Gotta put me down by the river)

(Down by the riverside, down by the riverside)
Is there someone
Who can use my pain?
You know I'm prayin' for someone
Who can better be sane
Oh, are there any moments
This gotta be the end
All of the dying hours that I waited
For my love to take me down again

On the concrete walls
On a silver cross

(Gonna take my down to the river)
Down by the riverside
(Gonna put me deep in the water)
Deep down again
(Gotta put me down by the river)
Down by the
(Down by the riverside, down by the riverside)
