The River lyrics

My sweet prince, you used to love a lady

You wrote poems for her, you were so kind

Now she s hearing you re becoming crazy

That you ve lost grip of your amazing mind

And she tastes sorrow as youtold her

Love is vain, she d better be far away

A thousand needles stuck in her tired heart

The last thing she expected you to say

They say it was him to take away your life

Beloved father I m going to meet you again

Everyone but this river has let me down

So I just let me drown

I let the river flow over

A life driven by others

I let the water cover

This burden of troubles

Flows my body among the flowers

Thank you, branch, wooden savior

I watch me drown, finally free

Now I m dying I start to breathe

My dear brother, please don t you suffer

I ll be fine, you ll always be this strong

It s so hard to face the loss of everything

That gave you meaning to belong

In this place, this cold and rotten nation

Twenty years of blind obedience to what you all told

I can t go on without an explanation

Wanna leave behind all the evil of this world

Still in death I can t find my peaceful sleep

I ve been stumentalized against what made me real

I ve set free my head, they labeled me just mad

These flowers be my crown

I let the river flow over

A life driven by others

I let the water cover

This burden of troubles

Flows my body among the flowers

Thank you, branch, wooden savior

I watch me drown, finally free

Now I m dying I start to breathe

I let the river flow over me..

I see teared eyes around,

Around my grave

Who re you talking to, love?

The skull you hold won t speak

You see, my flesh, so solid

Now is melting

To die, to sleep, to dream

Was my choice

I let the river flow over

A life driven by others

I let the water cover

This burden of troubles

Flows my body among the flowers

Thank you, branch, wooden savior

I watch me drown, finally free

Now I m dying I start to breathe
