about

On the other side of the river is a battle one must fight to stay alive. But there are many obstacles in the river that scare us. ‘The River’ is about doubt and taking action. Through water surfaces transformation.

lyrics

I want to fight a war that’s on the other side of the river But I have no boat
And I have no paddles
So I guess I’ll have to swim and try not to drown ‘Cause I have people who love me
I want to fight a war that’s on the other side of the river But I’m afraid to hold a gun,
So I’ll have to fight with my fists and my teeth With my fists and my teeth

I’ll fight ’til there’s no more flesh on my bones
I’ll fight ’til all my muscles are gone
I’ll fight ’til there’s no more blood in my veins
And if I turn to dust, I’ll become thunder and burn it all in flames

I want to cross the river so I can take action in the battle But there are snakes in the water
And gators too
And the tide is high
But so are my expectations So I feed them with my anger
I’m gonna fight the war that’s on the other side of the river But I’m naked in the sun
So I’ll have to fight with my fists and my teeth With my fists and my teeth

I’ll fight ’til there’s no more flesh on my bones
I’ll fight ’til all my muscles are gone
I’ll fight ’til there’s no more blood in my veins
And if I turn to dust, I’ll become thunder and burn it all in flames
