Where The River Ends Lyrics - Smash The Control Machine - Otep

I will let you see with my words 

I will let you burn and observe 

But where I go you can only follow 

So close your eyes, open your mind and see 

Somewhere out in the dark 

A car pulls up and parks 

And the passenger shifts nervously in her seat 

And the butterflies flutter in her belly 

And the driver shuts off the engine, moves a little close 

She giggles a little as he unbuttons her blouse 

She pushes him away and he whispers 

Baby, don't be that way 

I took you out, I treated you right 

Now, don't put up a fight 

Come on, I only wanna put the tip in 

Don't fight, don't fight, come on 

This is all your fault, you know 

Just relax, just let me do what I gotta d 

I'll let ya go, don't you love me? 

Don't you love me? Don't you love me? 

Breathe in deep, a sea of desperate dreams 

I have no mouth and I must scream 

Breathe in deep, a sea of desperate dreams 

I have no mouth 

And somewhere in a normal neighborhood 

In a normal house, a normal family is falling apart 

And down the hall the little ones hide 

Frozen as fossils as their mother cries 

Listening now that the others have gone silent 

The walls blister as sister rises in defiance 

Here in the depths of the labyrinth she will make her mark 

She travels the cavern searching for the minotaur 

And she finds him asleep in the heat of his triumphs 

And a sparkle of flame flickers in her eye 

She nudges him softly and says 

Daddy, wanna give me a try? 

And he rumbles a roar 

You must lick honey from a thorn 

If you are to survive this night 

And she says no, I'd rather a pick a fight 

And he reaches out and she's on the attack 

And he's face down and she straddles his back 

And as the moonlight fades from his eyes 

She sighs, come on, what's the matter? 

Don't you love me? Don't you love me? 

Don't you love me? 

Breathe in deep, a sea of desperate dreams 

I have no mouth and I must scream 

Breathe in deep, a sea of desperate dreams 

I have no mouth and I must scream 

What we are you too will become 

Liberated children of a blood hungry God 

Sedition 

They used to hang women like me, strange fruit on the poplar tree 

They used to own women like me, necessary accessories 

They used to burn women like me to quell the fires of liberty 

In the blessed fertile crescent, they still stone women like me 

And one day you will say just look at her now 

And as everything fades to black 

And as the jackals laugh in the aftermath 

I'm not yours anymore
