River of Deceit Lyrics

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 waistThe River of Deceit pulls down, oh
The only direction we flow is down
Down, oh down, down, oh down
Down, oh down, down, oh downMy 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 seeThe River of Deceit pulls down, yeah
The only direction we flow is down
Down, oh down, down, oh down
Down, oh down, down, oh downThe pain is self-chosen, yeah
Our pain is self-chosenDown, oh down, down, oh down
Down, oh down, down, oh down
