Black River is a common name for streams and communities around the world, as well as the Spanish and Portuguese translation for Rio Negro.
When I come alive, and blood is running hot, so hot, that you can feel
When I stand behind, your back, breathing so hard, that you can hear
You don't know, what can happen now, what electric sings, I'll send to you
You never walk alone, feeling me near, so close till you get scared
You're looking around but too far away
I'm so close to you
You're looking around but too far away
I'm so close to you
You're looking around but too far away
Looking around but too far away
Looking around but too far away
When I feel your skin, so close to mine, so near, yet so far
When I see how, you suffer feeling me, I should leave you and go away
You're looking around but too far away
I'm so close to you
You're looking around but too far away
I'm so close to you
You're looking around but too far away
Looking around but too far away
Looking around but too far away
You're looking around but too far away
You're looking around but too far away
You're looking around but too far away
I'm so close to you
You're looking around but too far away
I'm so close to you
You're looking around but too far away
Looking around but too far away
Looking around but too far away
When I come alive and my blood is running hot
How far has it gone, I don't care, yeah...
My private hell, do not shout, don't bleat
No need to lie, now you've found yourself
You gonna taste it, bite it
Running away from... not so easy
Honey, I'll be waiting in the fire
Show me your love as I like it
I'm blinded by the street light
Look at me
Do you see the enemy?
I don't buy what you say, there is no other way
You must sit here, face to face with your fate.
One way you're gonna fail
Stay here full and alone for the next time when I come for...
Enemies, you and me, you build a wall inside
You and me, enemies, all the ways you hate me
Some will take, some will see
Every part of you, in other words
You're for sale and I'm buying you
Running away from... not so easy
Honey, I'll be waiting in the fire
Show me your love as I like it
I'm blinded by the street light
You must feel it, it's something we all know
You must feel it, it's something we all know
You are, youve been and you will always be the one
my dream, my desire the sense of my life
be mine, be now when i see you i get higher
one smile one glance- and you light the fire
It's my life, its my fate my love and pain
my redemption and hope
no one can only you the one in the universe
to make me feel im alive
go my way
make me feel
I know and everybody
knows you are not for me
you have only my dream hellish unreal
Quick quick quick love me
or never let me feel it
my heart like dum-dum
love and hate in fire
It's my life its my fate my love and pain
my redemption and hope
no one can only you the one in the universe
to make me feel im alive but i know...
im all right im all right im all right im all right but i feel it x4
The woman smiles
We could be together
Keep on holding you
Back in your arms
When you have a broken heart...
And this is my fault...
Can't you reach out for... me?
Do you really want to feel?
One night - I don't know how...
One girl - I don't know the name...
I didn't ask her name (again)
And she didn't know mine
It was only once, without names...
I don't remember cause I was drunk
One night - I don't know how...
One girl - I don't know the name...
I didn't ask her name (again)
And she didn't know mine
It was only once,
I don't remember which night and where...
You see it's all real
Yes, I've cheated on you again
Cause I can't love strong
I can't breathe
Be together
Always, forever
One night - I don't know how...
One girl - I don't know the name...
I didn't ask her name (again)
And she didn't know mine as well
Day after day you try to see more
But here, but now you're a speck of dust, you mean nothing
You should know that everything is gone
Your power, your real is going to... going away
You know how I feel
Loud, louder, speak to me louder
Every moment, my thoughts are real
Loud, louder, speak to me louder
How could you do this, do it to me?
You made a fool out of me all the time
Plaing with me your false game (x2)
Now, confess louder, speak to me louder
Day after day you try to see more
But here, but now you're a speck of dust, you mean nothing
You should know that everything is gone
Your power, your real is going to... going away
Enough of this game, my anger has grown
We have to know what's fucking going on
I'm really mad, I don't regret
Any of my deeds and my thoughts anymore
Back to reality, to understand
A part of me and a part of you
This is the time to speak it all out
Morphine
Oh, how can you not see?

White love from my dream
Faster
I feel better with you
Harder
Wait so long for a dream
When I crawl across the floor,
You're just watching me, my pain
I'm bleeding now. I'm bleeding fast
I want to know
How quick, how fast my love
You will give me my last wish, last chance,
redeem me
I'm running out (x2)
I'm running out of breath,
I'm running out (x2)
I'm running out of life
I'm crawling across the floor
You're just watching me, my pain
I'm bleeding now, I'm bleeding fast
I want to know
How quick, how fast my love
You will give my last wish, last chance,
redeem me
Stop the pain, I don't care about money
Come on, come on! Give me this shot, honey
You should take to me, miss morphine
Cause you are my last chance, miss morphine
And when I'll crawl across the floor
You'll raise my hand, lst chance, no more
And you will not let me die
Better get it right first time

I'm from nowhere
Deep, dark water
I can leave you
When i want to...
Always young & drunk
Always young & drunk
Always young & drunk
Drifting nowhere
You follow to me
Tears flew down to you
Drinking always
From your Blackness
You know that i'm drunk
Always young & drunk
Want to be me
Always young & drunk
I can be free
You saw the black scenes, from the darkness
You saw the dark minds, from my whispers
And when I close my eyes
I'll be on the black side
And when you are still young
I'll still be drunk
You saw the black scenes, from the darkness
You saw the dark minds, from my whispers
Always young & drunk
Lift your face up from the ground
make fun of everything around
dance like junkies in purple eden
I don't care, I'm there in black heaven
Look on kids walking the streets
the faces older, hands stronger
But where's the smile, where is their play?
Oh fuck, you turned the wrong way
Don't believe in what you saw
You are pissed off with everything
Your life, your work, a soul
I suggest you let it slide
Can't believe in what you saw
You're pissed off with everything
Your life, your work, a soul
I think you need to get a life
Isabel (x6)
Lift your face up from the ground
Just make fun of everything around
Or dance like junkies in dark purple eden
I don't care causc I'm there in black heaven
Look around, there is a pile of shit
Nice people stink so bad, indeed
Nice people think they play the game
Hey girl you turned the wrong way
Can't believe in what you saw
You're pissed off with everything
Your life, your work, a soul
I suggest you let it slide
Can't believe in what you saw
You're pissed off with everything
Your life, your work, a soul
I think you need to get a life
Never you, no more life (x4)
LET IT SLIDE FREE
GET A LIFE
Be free!

They call you a problem child
Since you were born to fight
With the sleepless night
A misfit, young and wild
Don't build the wall inside
Or you'll never get out from...
What's in your mind
Did you ever think about truth?
Can you live your life for real?
Don't build the wall
Live your life and think about truth
Get out from the dark and fear
They want to change your way
Teaching you through lies
And what a real, true life should be
A misfit, young and wild
Don't build the wall inside
Or you'll never get out from...
Don't build the wall
Live your life and think about truth
Get out from the dark and fear
Break down the wall
Get out and live
Don't build the wall
Live your life and think about truth
Get out from the dark and fear
Break down the wall
Black river
Black river
Black river
The story?s still unfolding and like the river rolling
It's always moving like a tide
Seemingly unchanging
But of course nothing stays the same, you'll see
Black river
Black river
Black river
And if I scratch the surface and try to look to learn it
Oh, what fantastic worlds I'll find
Stay with me forever
Buried deep inside my mind, you'll see
Sha, la, la, la, la
I'm casting out my line
Although it?s floating by
Who knows what I'll find, we'll see
It's early in the morning, I watched a raindrop falling
So slim and tender from a leaf
It stays with me forever
Buried deep inside of me, you'll see
Black river
Black river
Black river
Black river
Black river
Black river
You love looking in the mirror
You love when they stare at you
You like dealing with the devil
You’re lucky in hell
How much you won
And how rich you are
Greed gives you more
Your wish is a spell
You have no soul
You’re unpredictable
You burn like a torch
You, you wanna get more
Till the end od days
Be everywhere, be know everywhere
You need another
You will get another
You’ve got a message
You will get more, more, more
You hot dreams – now – hot and real
Your hot desires, hot and real
I will keep you dark till the end of time
You come from nowhere
You have no soul
Your home in the mirror
Your life full of visions
I'm leaving that place, my home is where my music goes
I'm letting all the women go, I let them grow old
I let them remember the touch and the thrill
I let them curse, let them hm.. hm... , I let them feel
Fill up tank and hit the gas
Gotta find a new place fast
Searching for another shack
Gotta get my guitar back
Where's my next stop, where's a rest
Kind of tricky concert test
All I wanted, all I have
Gotta make our couch a mess
I loving the place, I'm getting all my bags unpacked
I'm closing the door, I really wanna make a call
I let myself miss, I let myself imagine
The world without music, sorry but I can't get it
Fill up tank and hit the gas
Take me home ,and take me fast
Give me money and rock 'n' roll
Fuck the wrinkles, fuck this all
Know the next stop, it's our home
Someone's sitting in our throne
Let him rule but let us know
Fuck the Rock and fuck the Roll
I'm leaving that place, my home is where my music goes
I'm letting all the women go, I let them grow old
I let them remember the touch and the thrill
I let them curse, let them hm.. hm... , I let them feel
I loving the place, I'm getting all my bags unpacked
I'm closing the door, I really wanna make a call
I let myself miss, I let myself imagine

I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain
But it's all right now
in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right
I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag,
I was schooled with a strap right across my back
But it's all right now
in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right
I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead.
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled.
I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I was crowned with a spike right thru my head!
But it's all right now
in fact, it's a gas!
But it's all right
I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash,
It's a gas! Gas! Gas!
Jumpin' Jack Flash,
Black River deep and still
in the summer sun
a promise rise she will
walk on before she runs
The evening dream awakes
honeysuckle sweet
by day the levee breaks
surround her like a wreath
I'm not in love
(Black River deep and still
in the summer sun)
I'm not in love
(a promise rise she will
walk on before she runs)
She tried to hold the moon
still the river rose
autumn yellow wanes to soon
goodbye to all she knows
I'm not in love
(Black River deep and still
in the summer sun)
I'm not in love
(a promise rise she will
Morphine
Oh, how can you not see?

I'm running out (x2)
I'm running out of breath,

I'm bleeding now, I'm bleeding fast
I want to know
How quick, how fast my love
You will give my last wish, last chance,

Woah, black river,
gonna take my cares away.
Woah, black river,
gonna take my cares away.
Gonna take my cares,
gonna carry my cares,
gonna take my care away.
Gonna take my cares,
gonna carry my cares,
gonna take my care away.
Woah, dear saviour,
gonna take my cares away.
Woah, dear saviour,
gonna take my cares away.
Gonna take my cares,
gonna carry my cares,
gonna take my care away.
Gonna take my cares,
gonna carry my cares,
gonna take my care away.
Woah, sweet whiskey boy,
c'mon,
gonna take my cares away.
Woah, sweet whiskey boy,
you're gon,
you're gonna take my cares away.
Gonna take my cares,
gonna carry my cares,
gonna take my care away.
Gonna take my cares,
gonna carry my cares,
gonna take my care away.
You're gonna take my bottle, my bible, my mess.
You're gonna take all of my empty and my lonelyness.
Gonna take all of the sadness inside of me,
gonna take it all and set me free.
Woah, black river,
There's a black river flowing
A poisoned stream
Out of nowhere it comes
And nowhere it leads
There's no today, and no tomorrow
That river is fed
By the dark thoughts of those
That have a black heart inside
And I feel how I get close
To them myself, in all my sorrow
And the river starts dragging me in
Silently I watched and waited
Each and every night
You should have anticipated
That something was not right
Would you hold the line
In days like these my friend
Would you hold the line
Or would you cut it off at your end
Something crawls out of the river
Something crawls all over my skin
Something is trying to get hold of my heart
I'm losing my sense of direction
And I cannot remember
Anything but the world fading to grey
As the river is dragging me in
Silently I watched and waited
Each and every night
You should have anticipated
That something was not right
Would you hold the line
In days like these my friend
Would you hold the line
Or would you cut it off at your end
In a short clear moment
I force all my resistance
So I stretch out my hands to reach out
For the river's bank
I'm not yet ready to go under
I'm not yet giving up
There still is a chance to find
Someone that's worth
Taking any risk, and taking on any fight
That makes me put all of these sorrows aside
Sometimes it takes just a word
To save a life
So if you get to that river one day
You better take my advice
Don't forget what I say
It's not too late to turn around
So don't let it drag you in
Would you hold the line
In days like these my friend
Would you hold the line
Or would you cut it off at your end
Another day of fear
Another faced without you
Another days so weird
Coz I'm lost without you
In the land of overwhelming grief
My days move slowly on
I'm a prisoner of never - ending silence
(The) silence (you) left behind you
How I grieve
Whispers in my ear
Words unsaid surround me
I still feel you,feel so near
(And) I'm sa lost without you
All that is gone
Will remain forever
In (the) deepest silence
Of my heart
And now I know
You are gone forever
You are gone but let me dream
Oh,silence
The only gift from you
In my heart
Hearts soon die,deprived of hope
I am dying
Without you
Come ano hold me now I'm falling
Stay and save me now I'm falling
I'm falling down the empty silence
Your silence
Oh,let me dream of the word unspoken
Of your hands and warm embrance
Of what I never got from you
Of our being together
Let me dream to set me free
At least just let me dream
Of those words unspoken
To dream to set me free
In never-ending silence
I dream to set me free
In never-ending silence
The world is tumbling down
Still searching for my way
The right way to be
Still pondering
What I’ve done
I’m still thinking what I’ve said
Still finding from within
And all that I know
Is still not enough
I’m being held by the one
Shadow tormenting my soul
The curving neck of the swan
The slow turning of a bird’s head
So white its plumes and feathers
Its breast like the moon in water
Silent and tranquil it moves
On the river in the calm
I wander back on familiar roads
I sense the marks I left on the hills
I see the cuts and wounds of my deeds
They make me muse on life
Up the hill and the mountain
I look back, I look down
There flows the River of Death
