There once was a body of water that ran
All among the mountains and up to a ****
A clean clear river of simple pleasure
But it was worth more than all your treasure
But darkness fell to that land
And the I had no water to hold in my hand
The people cried "Oh, rain gods come and fill our stream"
But all in haste they decided we must sacrifice our Queen
Soul for soul and blood for water
Just one life to slaughter
But love of her people and her kin
Could not stop her from shaking within
A long trek to highest peak
And there they saw the remains of their creek
But a trickle of dew in the mud
And soon it would be mixed with sacrificial blood
On the alter the lady was lain
But all their hopes were killed in vain
The knife was raised and dropped like a stone
And on that day no sun shone
Her tears crept down in silent pools
To give life to these poor fools
And as you watch and as they wait
The tears of love and tears of fate
The rain racing to the bank
And the people fell and began to thank
