She's A River

make no mistake

it's the sound of the gun

that echoes in here

it's a hollow truth

the secret lines

and you don't give in

it's the way we die

I called your name

from the hills of our dreams

dead flowers grow on these fields

pale moon

lights the way

wipes the tears

of yesterday

there's no goodbyes

and the worlds going down

she's a river

I sat by her side

I can't break these chains

no one is here

all the lights are sliding away

I can't hold on tonight

my senses astray

so close to the fire

and fear comes again

I roamed the streets

hunting you down

only fools will be king

the valleys here

the myth you sold

soaked in rain

and tombs are cold
