A ****** river pierces through The raw heart of society Inflicting souls of blooming youth With socialized propriety In the core of suburbia The river flows along the roads It runs into the neighborhoods And out the faucets of their homes What awaits at the river’s mouth Is a mindless understanding “Conform or be confused,” it roars “And live on forever thirsty” Most children of the world Are begging for a drink But some know the river’s tide It controls what you think To the conscious youth there lies a choice To be lonely but be free Or let the river erode your mind And be carried out to sea

The River
A ****** river pierces through The raw heart of society Inflicting souls of blooming youth With socialized propriety In the core of suburbia The river flows along the roads It runs into the neighborhoods And out the faucets of their homes What awaits at the river’s mouth Is a mindless understanding “Conform or be confused,” it roars “And live on forever thirsty” Most children of the world Are begging for a drink But some know the river’s tide It controls what you think To the conscious youth there lies a choice To be lonely but be free Or let the river erode your mind And be carried out to sea
