The River - Lyrics - Impure Wilhelmina

I divide my age by four to understand what I am Where's the source of all this suffering ? Then I add sixty-five years to see what I became Has all this really a meaning ? Cause I'll never find a friend among the creatures That lives in the river of life, I'm drowning I came because the sky was blue but the water is cloudy and cold How the *** would I speak my mind if I must hold my breath ? I wonder how you can keep complaining There's no water in your lungs and I am almost deaf There are too many voices in the river of life, I'm drowning I came on to wash my face and my soul but the water is dirty and green Never learned to swim, I don't want to stay naked before you I don't want to swim naked in the river of life, I'm drowning I came on that summer day now the water is fragrant and red
