My love is like a river
as raging water flows
love me in the morning
to see which way it goes.

Love Is Like A River

Will I make it out of here?
I swear I'll only make you cry
My breath is shallow
My lungs cannot hold enough air
I'll be god, I'll be god today
You'll be mortal forever
My head is filled with parasites
That eat away at my brain
Till it is gone
Then they'll go for my eyes
They will eat me
Until I am only bone
And my tears are salt
Like the stars
Connecting together
To form the phantom image
Of me
