Otep - Where The River Ends lyrics
rate me<BR>
Come<br>
With me<br>
<br>
I will let you see with my words<br>
I will let you burn & observe<br>
<br>
But where I go<br>
You can only follow<br>
<br>
So close your eyes<br>
Open your mind<br>
<br>
...and see<br>
<br>
Somewhere<br>
Out in the dark<br>
<br>
A car pulls up<br>
& parks<br>
<br>
& the passenger<br>
Shifts nervously in her seat<br>
& butterflies<br>
Flutter in her belly<br>
<br>
& the driver<br>
Shuts off the engine<br>
& moves a little close<br>
<br>
She giggles a little<br>
As he unbuttons her blouse<br>
<br>
She pushes him away<br>
& he whispers,<br>
"aw baby, don't be that way.<br>
I took you out, I treated you right.<br>
Now, don't put up a fight.<br>
Come on.<br>
I only want to put the tip in.<br>
Don't fight, don't fight. come on.<br>
This is all your fault you know.<br>
Just relax, let me do what I gotta do<br>
& I'll let you go.<br>
<br>
Don't you love me ?<br>
Don't you love me ?<br>
<br>
DON'T YOU LOVE ME ?<br>
<br>
Breathe in deep<br>
A sea of desperate dreams<br>
I have no mouth<br>
& I must scream<br>
<br>
Brethe in deep<br>
A sea of desperate dreams<br>
I have no mouth...<br>
<br>
And somewhere<br>
In a normal neighborhood<br>
In a normal house<br>
<br>
A normal family<br>
Is falling part<br>
<br>
And down the hall<br>
The little ones hide<br>
<br>
Frozen as fossils<br>
As their mother cries<br>
<br>
Listening<br>
Now that the others have gone silent<br>
<br>
The walls blister<br>
As sister rises in defiance<br>
<br>
Here<br>
In the depths of the labyrinth<br>
She will make her mark<br>
<br>
She travels the cavern<br>
Searching for the Minotaur<br>
<br>
& she finds him<br>
Asleep in the heat<br>
Of his triumphs<br>
<br>
A sparkle of flame<br>
Flickers in hey eye<br>
<br>
She nudges him softly<br>
And says, "Daddy, wanna give me a try ?"<br>
<br>
And he rumbles a roar,<br>
"You must lick honey from a thorn<br>
If you are to survive this night"<br>
<br>
And she says, "no, I'd rather pick a fight."<br>
<br>
And he reaches out and she's on the attack<br>
And he's face down and she straddles his back<br>
<br>
Ans has the moonlight fades from his eyes<br>
She sighs,<br>
"come on, what's the matter ?"<br>
<br>
Don't you love me ?<br>
Don't you love me ?<br>
<br>
DON'T YOU LOVE ME ?<br>
<br>
Breathe in deep<br>
A sea of desperate dreams<br>
I have no mouth<br>
& I must scream<br>
<br>
Breathe in deep<br>
A sea of desperate dreams<br>
I have no mouth AND I MUST SCREAM !<br>
<br>
Whate we are<br>
You too will become<br>
<br>
Liberated children<br>
Of a bloody-hungry god<br>
<br>
Sedition !<br>
<br>
They used to HANG women like me,<br>
Strange fruit of the poplar tree !<br>
<br>
They used to OWN women like me,<br>
Necessary accessories !<br>
<br>
They use to BURN women like me,<br>
To quell the fires of liberty<br>
<br>
In the blessed fertile orescent,<br>
THEY STILL STONE WOMEN LIKE ME !<br>
<br>
And one day you will say<br>
Just look at her now !<br>
<br>
...and as everything fades to black<br>
...and as the jackals laugh in the aftermath<br>
<br>
I'm not yours anymore<br>
<BR><BR>
