The Riverbed Songtext

von Madrugada

Moon
How it falls
In the field
Down among us

Rain
Falls
On the king
And it's me
On the riverbed

Now
Now we need
After all
These years

Do you my king do you remember me
Yeah I see these things before me now
And I'm telling you tonight that I know we belong
Beyond this life
The war is taking it's turn and may never turning back

I grew
To be aman
When you grew to be a king

Got a job
At the mill
When the war came I signed up for you

Every day now
Send a letter to the people back home
Oh I bet you long for the life that you lived
Me myself I got nothing to lose for this war
And I'm telling the war that I fought it was wrong
And we must die
Well now the shells are hammering down on the riverbed

Drums roll
We must go, we must go
The enemies the enemy is upon us

Rise from your knees
And now pull to the bridge
Oh brother don't turn 'cause I'm right behind you now
Go on go on on and up from the riverbed
For I'm telling the war that I fought it was wrong
And we must die
Doesn't matter much now anyway
Tonight we unite

And when we're pushing through I turn around one last time
And through the fire and the rain I see the king's white flag
The kings lives on but everyone
Everybody die
