Grim River

So few times the words come out

Our hearts bleed like stone

So we lie until our sorrow is deeper than a dried well

But the real grief comes only at the end

How many times did we leave the fallen behind

To drag ourselves into an early grave

How many promises did we really have to break

To finally break our own petrified shame

We row this grim river to say goodbye

That shadowed delta was that last farewell

To have known you, the most I could ever ask

To have you walk by my side

"I will try... I will try and walk alone"

We get to spend time with our loved ones only once

Yet we often bid farewell in haste

This time I will say I am sorry for all those times I did not

Please forgive me

We row this grim river to say goodbye

That shadowed delta was that last farewell

To have known you, the most I could ever ask

To have you walk by my side

We row this grim river to say goodbye

That shadowed delta was that last farewell

To have known you, the most I could ever ask

To have you walk by my side

We row this grim river to say goodbye

We row this grim river to say goodbye
