In one dark swollen vein
The black river came
And I followed it to you
Saw the morning rise
Thunder shook the skies
A siren wailed and died.
Then I heard it calling me
River flow pulling me free
Drag me slowly back to the sea
But you made me warmer
You made me warmer.
I knew he was gone
The same river song
Carried him away
Bleeding and disturbed
Never to return
To that part of town
Then I heard it calling me
River flow pulling me free
Drag me slowly back to the sea
But you made me warmer
You made me warmer.
