RIVERS RUN
Running wildly toward the ocean, my logic drowned in emotion, no
mermaids for to find, to help dry out my mind, I feel like a saviour
without a cross to bare, so careless but I cant help but care, as this
current runs it’s course, I feel like an impotent force, there’s a savage
wind howling in my soul, there’s a flood building in my heart I’m bound
to lose control.
Life sometimes I hate you sometimes I love you, sometimes I don’t know
what to think of you, I may be the great unknown , I may be the chosen
one, we’ll know which man is king, at the throne of rivers run.
Spinning madly toward the sea, trying hard to find the sailor in me, like
the newly born I have no past, into the fishnet of desire my life was cast, I
was wounded by a remedy cured by a disease, her beauty brought me to
my knees, I’m the saint of the unforgiven, we call this life but you
couldn’t call it living, beauty has touched the earth to damn the beautiful,
desire is a placebo to charge the dutiful.
Life sometimes I hate you sometimes I love you, sometimes I don’t know
what to think of you, I may be the great unknown , I may be the chosen
one, we’ll know which man is king, at the throne of rivers run.
Aching always for the sky, everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody
wants to die, I turn in wonder I stare in awe, seen or not seen I cant
believe what I saw, I need a love that will bend to my will, I need to touch
her flesh in hope to feel, my destiny in a cold wind blows, everybody
guess’s what nobody knows, strangely groping thru life’s desperate
interlude, life just goes on living in it’s indifferent mood.
Life sometimes I hate you sometimes I love you, sometimes I don’t know
what to think of you, I may be the great unknown , I may be the chosen
one, we’ll know which man is king, at the throne of rivers run.
