Black River Lyrics - Singles - Everon

There's a black river flowing 

A poisoned stream 

Out of nowhere it comes 

And nowhere it leads 

There's no today, and no tomorrow 

That river is fed 

By the dark thoughts of those 

That have a black heart inside 

And I feel how I get close 

To them myself, in all my sorrow 

And the river starts dragging me in 

Silently I watched and waited 

Each and every night 

You should have anticipated 

That something was not right 

Would you hold the line 

In days like these my friend 

Would you hold the line 

Or would you cut it off at your end 

Something crawls out of the river 

Something crawls all over my skin 

Something is trying to get hold of my heart 

I'm losing my sense of direction 

And I cannot remember 

Anything but the world fading to grey 

As the river is dragging me in 

Silently I watched and waited 

Each and every night 

You should have anticipated 

That something was not right 

Would you hold the line 

In days like these my friend 

Would you hold the line 

Or would you cut it off at your end 

In a short clear moment 

I force all my resistance 

So I stretch out my hands to reach out 

For the river's bank 

I'm not yet ready to go under 

I'm not yet giving up 

There still is a chance to find 

Someone that's worth 

Taking any risk, and taking on any fight 

That makes me put all of these sorrows aside 

Sometimes it takes just a word 

To save a life 

So if you get to that river one day 

You better take my advice 

Don't forget what I say 

It's not too late to turn around 

So don't let it drag you in 

Would you hold the line 

In days like these my friend 

Would you hold the line 

Or would you cut it off at your end 

Would you hold the line
