I went down to the river

with good intent

I knew that she liked me

from past events

I hang my head down

when I can’t stand

being alone in here, being alone with you

I went down to the marketplace

to get high

I saw some strangers as I

walked by and they cried

with me, they cried

for you, it’s nothing new

Under the stars we watched

the heavens fall

And in your eyes I

see nothing at all but me

Staying clear and you

being free

I went down to the river

with good intent

But the road to hell

is paved with that

Yeah, but that’s the idea

Yeah, but that’s why I’m here
