Darkest night

This is the dark night of the soul

Riding high

Looking to get out of control

I wish I could but you’re never even there and if you were, oh god, I swear there'd be hell to pay today

Down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died

I went down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died

Inside

Lotions and potions

They won't preserve your youth like the blood of the virgins you take under your wing

If that's your thing

And I know, I know that that's your thing

As you line your eyes and dance like the last thirty years never happened at all

Down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died

I went down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died

Inside

Inside!

Down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest

Down through the trees

I waited twelve long years, on the thirteenth year I died

I went down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years, on the thirteenth year I died

Inside

Inside!

A dozen years

A dozen years I've waited for your love

A dozen years of pain

Composing verses never heard before

The works of Shakespeare won't compare to

This verse I am writing you

Celebrating your immortal beauty for life

Down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years, on the thirteenth year I died

I went down to the rivers and down through the streams

Down to the forest and down through the trees

I waited twelve long years, on the thirteenth year I died

Inside

Inside!
