The plans we made
We planned in vain
A waste of time
Now winter’s hand
Made me understand
You’re no friend of mine

But i play your game
Like cornered prey
I play for time
And quietly
You abandon me
True to my design

From the river bed
To the water’s edge
High tide
Something’s stirring
You feel it on your skin
Down river it lies

Finally
We have seen some things
Some awfully nice
Some dreadfully bad

But we will sing
Wash the blood, off our knees
Cause our love breaks
Through ruff seas, our ship will sail it

I, don't, understand
How this world will work
Cause time will tell us nothing
I'll take a chance on something

(Fill them up
Fill them
This time take you)

Down river
Down river
Down river
Down..

(Walk these stairs
Put the pieces back together)

Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go don't stop
Now go..

Finally
We have seen some things
But bells in your hallways
Don't move you in the right place

So we will sing
Cast our hopes out to sea
Though our hears break
Through violent winds, our ship will sail it

I, don't, understand
How this world will work
Cause time will tell us nothing
I'll take a chance on something

(Build them up
Build them
This time take you)

Down river
Down river
Down river
Down..

(Walk these stairs
Put, the pieces, back together)

Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go don't stop
Now go..
Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go don't stop
Now go..

Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go, don't stop
Go don't stop
Now go..

Finally we have seen some things
Some awfully nice
Some dreadfully bad
But we will sing
Wash the blood off our knees
Cause our love breaks through rough seas
Our ship will sail
And I don't understand how this world
Would work
Cause time will tell us nothing
I'll take a chance on something

Feeling old, feelings this time take you
Down river, down river, down river, down
Walk these stairs, put the pieces back together
Go don't stop, go don't stop,
Go don't stop now, go

Finally, we have seen some things
But bells in your hallways
Don't move you in the right place
So we will sing, cast our hopes out to sea
Though our hearts break,
Through violent winds our ship will sail
And I don't understand how this world
Would work
Cause time will tell us nothing
I'll take a chance on something

Feeling old, feelings this time take you
Down, river, down river, down river, down
Walk these stairs, put the pieces back together
Go don't stop, go don't stop, go don't stop
Go don't stop now, go...

Sick of all the shit that's keeping me down
If your dead from the waist down
It's easy staying down
I never thought about it twice
But you do pay the price
It ain't your weekly cash
That feeds my mum the rice

Yo, don't be calling me desperate
When I'm knocking on the door
Every wall you build
I'll knock it down to the floor

See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain't met me
See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain't met me

Hands up! (a ni ni ni ni)
Guns out! (a ni ni ni ni)
Represent (a ni ni ni ni)
The world town (a ni ni ni ni)

Look at what you did, you done it before
Every little dollar just keeps me down more
I never had you on my side, bubbling on my side
Why they tell me different when they make me explodified

Yo, don't be calling me desperate
When I'm knocking on the door
Every wall you build
I'll knock it down to the floor

See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain't met me
See me see me bubbling quietly
See me see me acting like you ain't met me
