Your River

Lyrics for Your River

Your bloodied body is what I cling to In powerful rain, they laid down their heads to die Let your dark, thirsty eyes drink deep the sights of me It's sad that in our blindness, we gather thorns for flowers Your river holds a feast of danger The suffering you have had to bear I'd die for that moment, one more time The loved one falls below your ideals Pleasure too safely enjoyed, lacks zest The brave lick their sickening lips Rigid, handsome and a poet A king in his passionate castle Where now? Feed me, hold me Save me (save yourself) Where now? Which way? Dear God, show me (take your own) Struggle free, arise You're ruined, stand down Your kin piled thick around you Save yourself
