Lyrics
Evil River
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Laughter of children is fading away
Trees tall as towers surround us
We drive and we drive, 'til we drop from the edge
Feeling like nothing could bind us
But company's waiting where water is dark
And the shadows are hiding their faces
When we get there, they will call out our names
We know they just want to hurt us
We don't want you, come and pass through
And we will hunt you, we'll make you our own
Down the evil river
We barely escaped from the trap that they set
Wounded and dying of hunger
But they're coming after, it's matter of time
When they get here and find us
We buried their friend, now we're living in fear
Down in a hole made of stone
I'd rather be locked up in prison somewhere
Than lay by this cursed river, bleeding
We don't want you, come and pass through
And we will hunt you, we'll make you our own
Down the evil river
They're after me
Bringing me down
Dead eyes watching me
From under the ground
