Stay away from the dark river

It's cold outside tonight

And his name feels like a shiver down my spine

Shut all the windows, because God knows

Deep in the shadows of the moonlight

Someone's watching us

Filling our lungs with feelings unfelt



When you spin around

To a different sound

It's the sound of the violent violin

Written just to move you

The song you're bound to, it is making you blind

Don't look behind

A boy with music mainly on his mind

Is not hard to find

-A single note is all I need to fold him blind



I am higher than the sky

I want to fly

Never felt so alive

So, show me how to play

And I'll surrender to you now

I don't know why

I wanna cry

I'm so happy that I could die

Show me how to play

And I'll stay right here with you



They are crystal clear

The very last notes he will hear

Are the wailings from the king

Of the whitewater pouring in



A mourning mother in her kitchen

Lies crying on the floor

Not knowing if it's real or fiction any more

A lifetime she'd trade for

Just one more story on the side of his bed

And when she is running through the shadows

A familiar melody is playing in her head



When you spin around

To a different sound

It's the sound of the violent violin

Written just to move you

The song you're bound to, it is making you blind

Don't look behind

A woman hurt with vengeance on her mind

Is not hard to find

-A single note is all I need to fold her blind



I am higher than the sky

I want to fly

Never felt so alive

So, show me how to play

And I'll surrender to you now

I don't know why

I wanna cry

I'm so happy that I could die

Show me how to play

And I'll stay right here with you



They are crystal clear

The very last notes he will hear

Are the wailings from the king

Of the whitewater pouring in



You are higher than the sky

You want to fly

Never felt so alive

He'll show you how to play

Make you surrender to him now

You don't know why

You wanna cry

You're so happy that you could die

He'll show you how to play

Make you stay right there with him



They are crystal clear

The very last notes he will hear

Are the wailings from the king

Of the whitewater pouring in
