about

This is the first track from our forthcoming third album.

lyrics

Bitter River

We are we are the ghosts – we
float on the wind & see the sky
we go through the caves a mile high
& we touch the stars with our lips when we cry.

Something dear was always lost –
spending everything, don’t care for the cost.
You’ve got pale blue eyes & corpse-white skin –
& I’ve got to wonder just where you’ve been.

We all pay the ferry what we can –
staring into the face of the ferryman.
Acheron is a bitter river –
it’s just a taker, it ain’t no giver.

Something dear was always lost –
spending everything, don’t care for the cost.
Pale blue eyes & corpse-white skin –
& I’ve got to wonder just where you’ve been.

Loss is a change that comes in the night
strikes like a scorpion at your sight.
You give it all, get nothing back.
It’s only Death that nothing lacks.

(whistle)

Something dear was always lost –
spending everything, don’t care for the cost.
Pale blue eyes & corpse-white skin –
& I’ve got to wonder just where you’ve been.
