Otep - Where The River Ends lyrics

Your rating:

Come

With me



I will let you see with my words

I will let you burn & observe



But where I go

You can only follow



So close your eyes

Open your mind



...and see



Somewhere

Out in the dark



A car pulls up

& parks



& the passenger

Shifts nervously in her seat

& butterflies

Flutter in her belly



& the driver

Shuts off the engine

& moves a little close



She giggles a little

As he unbuttons her blouse



She pushes him away

& he whispers,

"aw baby, don't be that way.

I took you out, I treated you right.

Now, don't put up a fight.

Come on.

I only want to put the tip in.

Don't fight, don't fight. come on.

This is all your fault you know.

Just relax, let me do what I gotta do

& I'll let you go.



Don't you love me ?

Don't you love me ?



DON'T YOU LOVE ME ?



Breathe in deep

A sea of desperate dreams

I have no mouth

& I must scream



Brethe in deep

A sea of desperate dreams

I have no mouth...



And somewhere

In a normal neighborhood

In a normal house



A normal family

Is falling part



And down the hall

The little ones hide



Frozen as fossils

As their mother cries



Listening

Now that the others have gone silent



The walls blister

As sister rises in defiance



Here

In the depths of the labyrinth

She will make her mark



She travels the cavern

Searching for the Minotaur



& she finds him

Asleep in the heat

Of his triumphs



A sparkle of flame

Flickers in hey eye



She nudges him softly

And says, "Daddy, wanna give me a try ?"



And he rumbles a roar,

"You must lick honey from a thorn

If you are to survive this night"



And she says, "no, I'd rather pick a fight."



And he reaches out and she's on the attack

And he's face down and she straddles his back



Ans has the moonlight fades from his eyes

She sighs,

"come on, what's the matter ?"



Don't you love me ?

Don't you love me ?



DON'T YOU LOVE ME ?



Breathe in deep

A sea of desperate dreams

I have no mouth

& I must scream



Breathe in deep

A sea of desperate dreams

I have no mouth AND I MUST SCREAM !



Whate we are

You too will become



Liberated children

Of a bloody-hungry god



Sedition !



They used to HANG women like me,

Strange fruit of the poplar tree !



They used to OWN women like me,

Necessary accessories !



They use to BURN women like me,

To quell the fires of liberty



In the blessed fertile orescent,

THEY STILL STONE WOMEN LIKE ME !



And one day you will say

Just look at her now !



...and as everything fades to black

...and as the jackals laugh in the aftermath



I'm not yours anymore
