Compulsion

I could hear them howling from afar

I saw them rushing to your car

In a moment all went screaming wild

Until the darkness killed the light

I remember running to the sea

The burning houses and the trees

I remember running to the sea

Alone and blinded by the fear

And the river flows beneath your skin

Like savage horses kept within

And all is wasted in the sand

Like breaking diamonds with your hands

I remember running to the sea

Remember falling to my knees

I remember gliding off the shore

Until I touched the ocean floor

And the river flows beneath your skin

The savage horses kept within

And all is wasted in the sand

Like breaking diamonds with your hands

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me

And the river grows inside of me
