My river of tears that I swim in,
Getting deeper and deeper the more I swim,
I flooded the banks and I flooded the land,
Even the reaper didn’t have any of this planned,
My lonely tears keep falling down,
I’m know my fate, I’m sure to drown,
Stormy weather’s straight ahead,
But clear skies a wait once I am dead,
There is no saviour waiting for me,
My lifeless body will float to sea,
My tears didn’t keep the demons at bay,
Only the burden that was once me was washed away,
Tears of burden, tears of mad,
I sail the seven seas of sad,
Washed up on a rocky shore,
Like the tears from once before,
My soul an outcast, this life is rotten,
Just another dead man soon to be forgotten.
