I have travelled far

Unto this pagan hole

Where nothing is real

A place so pure as gold

She runs deep and strong

Twisting like a snake

A thousand miles long

A terror like a storm

On the river, on the river

Jangled tears

The shadows hold me near

Burn down the dawn

Deep inside my heart I can feel he is near me

Cold sweat drips down

Illusion and fear

On the river, on the river

Gunshot

River demon

Hands of love hands of treason

On the river, on the river

Turnaround, turnaround yeah turnaround

Beating the darkside, yeah

The darkside

Turnaround darkside yeah turnaound

Beating the darkside...

I have travelled far

Unto this pagan hole

Where nothing is real

A place so pure as gold

Deep inside my heart

I can feel he is near me

Cold sweat drips down

Illusion and fear

On the river...
