Ghost River - Live, at Wacken, 2013
It's a long road down the river deep 'n wild
Every twist and turn a wonder-dale
It's a scary ride we'd give anything to take
Let yourself bleed
Leave a footprint on every island you see
Hey you, child of rape, the riverbed awaits
Snow-white, pitch-black, your life such strife
Heavenward, deep down, I'll show you such sights
Believe it, we live as we dream/scream
He will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The river wild will take your only child
He will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town
He will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
If you want me, then do come across
What is it you dream of child of mine?
The magic ride, the mermaid cove?
Never met a kinder haert than yours
Let it bleed
Leave a footprint on every island you see
I am the painted faces, the toxic kiss
Sowing of doubt, troll beneath the bridge
Come across
Death by a thousand cuts
Believe it, we live as we dream/scream
I am the desert-scape, the sand inside your hourglass
I am the fear and abuse, the leper children
Every eye sewn shut
We will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The river wild will be our last ride
We will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town
Beautifully shy as you are
Never loose your heart
And do come across
Every twist and turn a wonder-dale
It's a scary ride we'd give anything to take
Let yourself bleed
Leave a footprint on every island you see
Hey you, child of rape, the riverbed awaits
Snow-white, pitch-black, your life such strife
Heavenward, deep down, I'll show you such sights
Believe it, we live as we dream/scream
He will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The river wild will take your only child
He will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town
He will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
If you want me, then do come across
What is it you dream of child of mine?
The magic ride, the mermaid cove?
Never met a kinder haert than yours
Let it bleed
Leave a footprint on every island you see
I am the painted faces, the toxic kiss
Sowing of doubt, troll beneath the bridge
Come across
Death by a thousand cuts
Believe it, we live as we dream/scream
I am the desert-scape, the sand inside your hourglass
I am the fear and abuse, the leper children
Every eye sewn shut
We will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The river wild will be our last ride
We will go down he wil drown drown, deeper down
The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town
Beautifully shy as you are
Never loose your heart
And do come across
