River Of Deceit

My pain

Is self-chosen

At least

So the prophet says

I could either burn

Or cut off my pride and buy some time

A head full of lies is the weight

Tied to my waist

The river of deceit pulls down, oh, oh

The only direction we flow is down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

My pain

Is self-chosen

At least

I believe it to be

I could either drown

Or pull off my skin and swim to shore

Now I can grow a beautiful shell for all to see

The river of deceit pulls down, yeah

The only direction we flow is down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

The pain is self-chosen, yeah

Our pain is self-chosen

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down

Down, oh down
