Lyrics
Riverbank
Verse 1 (innonence)
She led me to the river bank
She helped me free my soul
I hope i'll always have her to thank
For opening my goals
Verse 2 (indoctrination)
They took us down to the river bank
They tried to cleanse our souls
I guess we'll always have them to thank
For setting our new goals
Chorus (inquisition)
Wait a minute Mister Blue
The timings just not right
Wait a minute Mister Blue
I will not leave tonite
Verse 3 (infliction)
We dragged him to the river bank
We made him purge his soul
And now we all have him to thank
For changing all our goals
Chorus (inquisition)
Wait a minute Mister Blue
The timings just not right
Wait a minute Mister Blue
I will not leave tonite
Verse 4 (attrition)
I wandered to the river bank
I canceled all my goals
Now there's noone left to thank
For darkening my soul
