Everon

Everon - Black River lyrics

There's a black river flowing

A poisoned stream

Out of nowhere it comes

And nowhere it leads

There's no today, and no tomorrow

That river is fed

By the dark thoughts of those

That have a black heart inside

And I feel how I get close

To them myself, in all my sorrow

And the river starts dragging me in

Silently I watched and waited

Each and every night

You should have anticipated

That something was not right

Would you hold the line

In days like these my friend

Would you hold the line

Or would you cut it off at your end

Something crawls out of the river

Something crawls all over my skin

Something is trying to get hold of my heart

I'm losing my sense of direction

And I cannot remember

Anything but the world fading to grey

As the river is dragging me in

Silently I watched and waited

Each and every night

You should have anticipated

That something was not right

Would you hold the line

In days like these my friend

Would you hold the line

Or would you cut it off at your end

In a short clear moment

I force all my resistance

So I stretch out my hands to reach out

For the river's bank

I'm not yet ready to go under

I'm not yet giving up

There still is a chance to find

Someone that's worth

Taking any risk, and taking on any fight

That makes me put all of these sorrows aside

Sometimes it takes just a word

To save a life

So if you get to that river one day

You better take my advice

Don't forget what I say

It's not too late to turn around

So don't let it drag you in

Would you hold the line

In days like these my friend

Would you hold the line

Or would you cut it off at your end

Would you hold the line
