Swim the river when the bridge is gone,
|
I got the fever and I'm comin on,
|
feel the power in my flesh and bone,
|
through the fire and the fallen stone.
|
|
Up the alley and the dirty back roads,
|
all the places that nobody knows,
|
got to make it just another mile,
|
gonna be there in a little while.
|
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
I want to be by your side.
|
|
|
|
River burning and the trees are dyin',
|
tearing open with an angry sign,
|
hands they tremble and hearts they race,
|
I won't rest until I see your face.
|
|
Coming for you in the blazing night,
|
hold your body in the fading light,
|
I'll beg and steal if that's what it takes,
|
I may stumble but I will not break.
|
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
I want to be by your side.
|
|
|
Through the tunnel on my hands and knees,
|
people crying and they're begging please,
|
feel the power in my flesh and bone,
|
through the fire and the fallen stone.
|
|
All the places that nobody knows,
|
up the alley and the dirty back roads,
|
got to make it just another mile,
|
got to be there in a little while.
|
|
Coming for you in the blazing night,
|
hold your body in the fading light,
|
rivers burning and the trees are dyin',
|
tearing open with an angry sign.
|
|
Walls may crumble and the ground may shake,
|
I'll beg and steal if that's what it takes,
|
hands they tremble and hearts they race,
|
I won't rest until I see your face.
|
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
I want to be by your side.
|
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
If the end has come
|
I want to be by your side.
