Misanthrope River

[Intro: Anders Jacobsson] Here: Perhaps, 'tis the sole current that forever flows Leaving the gilded, youthful shore behind By venomous grief to drench the ever-belligerent stream All too real, too vast, this the shattered, incompetent dream [Verse 1: Lisa Johansson] When nothing is what it seems And the world has been pulled over your eyes When false light beings flock in the dissonance We're moving upstream down the misanthrope river [Refrain: Anders Jacobsson] Where shall I go if one of us dies? Where shall I go if one of us dies? [Bridge: Anders Jacobsson] Beware, my psychic inheritance No withdrawal, please Remedy me From where nothing is what it seems I've never asked for this! [Verse 2: Lisa Johansson] What truth has gone beneath the tide When every measure's been taken to steal the rushing light? Where shall I go if one of us dies? I'm moving upstream down the misanthrope river [Refrain: Anders Jacobsson] Cleansing our souls down the misanthrope river [Chorus: Lisa Johansson, Anders Jacobsson] And cold is the shiver with a brushing stroke of winter Cold, cold is the shiver I'm moving upstream down the misanthrope river River [Bridge: Anders Jacobsson] For you, my heart's last drum No withdrawal, please Remedy me For what am I not allowed to see? I've never asked for this! [Instrumental Outro]
