River Of Deceit

Lyrics by Layne Staley

Music by Staley, McCready, Martin, Saunders
|
|
My pain is self-chosen
|
At least, so The Prophet says
|
I could either burn
|
Or cut off my pride and buy some time
|
A head full of lies is the weight, tied to my waist
|
|
The River of Deceit pulls down, oh oh
|
The only direction we flow is down
|
Down, oh down
|
Down, oh down
|
Down, oh down
|
Down, oh down
|
|
My pain is self-chosen
|
At least I believe it to be
|
I could either drown
|
Or pull off my skin and swim to shore
|
Now I can grow a beautiful shell for all to see
|
|
The River of Deceit pulls down, yeah
|
The only direction we flow is down
|
Down, oh down
|
Down, oh down
|
Down, oh down
|
Down, oh down
|
|
The pain is self-chosen, yeah
|
Our pain is self-chosen
|
|
