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, yeah.
I called your name
From the hills of our dreams.
Dead flowers grow on these fields.
Pale moon
Lights my way,
Wipes the tears
Of yesterday.
There’s no goodbyes,
And the world’s 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,
An tombs are cold.
There’s no goodbyes,
And the world’s 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.
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.
There’s no goodbyes,
And the world’s 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,
Comes again,
Comes again,
Comes again.
