Water's Edge

"Don't go there", I heard her say
"You can't stomach what you're gonna see"
It's down there by the water's edge
Wasted and bloated and waiting for someone else

Funny how these things come about
When you're tied to the teeth and mouth
The sound of fury, a shot of pain
There was no real reason, no gain

I can't go down to the water's edge
I didn't do it, I saw who did
Don't go down to the water's edge
They did it once and they can do it again

It ain't no secret to me
How she got there down by the stream
'Cause I'd seen her the minute before
The van pulled up and opened the door
Took all my love

I can't say a single word
About what I saw of her
'Cause her killers, they got their friends in familiar places
I tell you, man

I can't go down to the water's edge
I didn't do it, I saw who did
Don't go down to the water's edge
They did it once, they can do it again

This ain't no fucking game
And I'm feeling so ashamed
'Cause I didn't do anything
No, I didn't do anything

To stop, to stop
To stop, to stop
This from happening
I didn't do anything

"Don't go down to the water's edge", you said to me
I didn't do it but I saw who did, you see
"Don't go down to the water's edge"
They did it once, they can do it again

I swear, I swear
I swear, I swear
I didn't do a thing
I should've have done something
