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 will drown drown, deeper down The river wild will take your only child He will go down he will drown drown deeper down The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town

He will go down he will drown drown, deeper down The river wild will take your only child He will go down he will drown drown deeper down The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town He will go down he will 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 heart 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"

"He will go down he will drown drown, deeper down The river wild will take your only child He will go down he will drown drown deeper down The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town

He will go down he will drown drown, deeper down The river wild will take your only child He will go down he will drown drown deeper down The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town He will go down he will drown drown, deeper down If you want me, then do come across"

"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 we will drown drown, deeper down The river wild will be our last ride We will go down we will drown drown, deeper down The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town"

Beautifully shy as you are Never lose your heart And do come across

"He will go down he will drown drown deeper down The mills grind slow in a riverbed ghost town He will go down he will drown drown, deeper down If you want me, then do come across"
