From The River
Lyrics and Music written by the Villains A long, long time ago, I had such
a weary soul
And the pleasures of this world I did not know
Then came my bitter days, when tribulations played
Those little games that made me lose my way
Chorus:
And my brothers come from the river
Cause our mothers went for the ride
If you get up, get up and deliver
Give it up one more time
Against the grain I flow, against
all odds I know
Misfortune favors those who wish but will not go
Out from this darkened hole, while traveling alone
My heart grows closer to the stories still untold
For there are so many roads, and all are lined with gold
But still there's nothing else that satisfies my soul |
