-GIVE HER BACK THE RIVER BED-

age:
should have never loved her, should have never cared
should have never done my little deed and held her head under there

greg:
what's that floating on the water?
pale and cold somebody's daughter
lies upon the waters deep
drinking of their inky sleep

greg:
nature makes her traps for us
our systems fail and break
mother nature's on the rag
she's had all she can take

age:
water over our heads now
i can't forget, i've been forgotten
she'll pay for this somehow
i won't regret, she's at the bottom

greg:
what's that floating in the water?
all our dreams fresh from the slaughter
dead and drowned there deep beneath
we'll join them in eternal sleep

age:
dredge the water and pretend to cry
no one will know this little act was mine
dredge the water and pretend to cry
taste it on your tongue, sweet revenge...it's mine

age:
should have never loved her, should have never cared
should have never done my little deed and held her head under there

greg:
give her back the river bed X4
age:
under water, under waves
see her floating, see her face X4

greg:
the crow will eat the bread crumbs
the sun will dry the lake
by then i will be crushed beneath
the weight of my mistakes

age:
what if someone was watching?
what if someone was there?
what if beady little eyes spied what i did,
let the river take her without a care?

greg: age:
the waves are lapping closer (should have never loved her)
brown and a-froth with swill (should have never cared)
the waves are slapping over (should have never done my little deed)
doorjambs and window sills (and held her head under there)
