River Of Deceit Lyrics - Above - Mad Season

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 waist 

The River of Deceit pulls down, oh 

The only direction we flow is down 

Down, oh down, down, oh down 

Down, oh down, down, oh down 

My 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 see 

The River of Deceit pulls down, yeah 

The only direction we flow is down 

Down, oh down, down, oh down 

Down, oh down, down, oh down 

The pain is self-chosen, yeah 

Our pain is self-chosen 

Down, oh down, down, oh down 

Down, oh down, down, oh down
