Sailing down, down the Styx again,
Without you my love, I want to return but then,
I see all my friends, they want me to join but then,
They all melt away, without you alone.

And the river's running through my veins.
Lately she don't seem the same.
And the blood keeps calling out my name.

I pass by the sins, left by a different man,
The tides brought them here, cast by a different hand.
And the wisps of the winds, blow with the Styx again.
Pushing me on, without you alone.

And the river's running through my veins.
Lately she don't seem the same.
And the blood keeps calling out my name.

And the river running down
And the river running down
And the river running down
And the river

My will must be strong, to rise with a different light.
My will must belong, I'm still pushing for different heights.
And the wisps of the winds blow with the Styx again.
The river runs red, and I'm left alone.

And the river's running thru my veins.
Lately she don't seem the same.
And the blood keeps calling out my name.
And the river's running.

It’s coming on christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But it don’t snow here
It stays pretty green
I’m going to make a lot of money
Then I’m going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry read more »

I’m losing all my innocence
Door to the river
I know I’ve stopped making much sense
Door to the river
I think I’ll leave and I’ll take some rest
Door to the river read more »

BURNING RIVERS (Marie Claire D'Ubaldo)
Bright colored dreams of what might have been
locked in the dark left to die in a cage
Prisoners of conscience all dissapeared
mothers and sisters still cry tears of rage read more »

So long, boy you can take my place
I’ve got my papers, I’ve got my pay
So pack my bags and I’ll be on my way

Let’s put our heads together and start a new country up
Our father’s father’s father tried, erased the parts he didn’t like
Let’s try to fill it in, bank the quarry river, swim
We knee-skinned it you and me, we knee-skinned that river red read more »

Quick, burn it down to the wick
Quick, burn it down to the wick
Burn it down to the heart
Burn it down to the heart
So the ending can start
So the ending can start read more »

(Janis Ian/John Vezner/John Mellencamp)
They are master and slaves
We are sunlight and shadow
All roads to the river
I am lost, I am saved read more »
