| You're bitter, bitter, bitter, bitter is sweet. | |
| So give in, give in, give in, give me more | |
| Your figure, figure, figure, figure of speech. | |
| Someone will face the fire if you fall. | |
| And when you fall | |
| Staring down the barrel of a gun, | |
| I knew that you would be the one. | |
| Raise a glass, looking at the sun, | |
| Mimic life you've seen and spun. | |
| Well you told me last night that you think | |
| About how you and I met in the spring of our lives. | |
| You've regressed to the sting, | |
| chasing your shadow in the mirror of the king, | |
| Hearing you sing | |
| Raise me from the living I've come again. | |
| Raise me to the limits you gave me then. | |
| Save me from the river of sin again, again, again | |
| Black River | |
| Bigger, bigger, bigger, bigger than me, | |
| Waiting to face the barrel when you call. | |
| Wither, wither, wither, wither in me, | |
| Ready to face the fire if you fall, | |
| And when you fall | |
| Staring down the barrel of a gun, | |
| I knew that you would be the one. | |
| Raise a glass looking at the sun, | |
| Mimic life you've seen then spun. | |
| Well you told me last night that you think | |
| About how you and I met in the spring of our lives. | |
| You've regressed to the sting, | |
| chasing your shadow in the mirror of the king, | |
| Hearing you sing | |
| Raise me from the living I've come again. | |
| Raise me to the limits you gave me then. | |
| Save me from the river of sin again, again, again | |
| Black River | |
| Black River | |
| Oh, oh, oh, oh | |
| And when you fall | |
| Staring down the barrel of a gun, | |
| I knew that you would be the one. | |
| Raise a glass looking at the sun, | |
| Mimic life you've seen then spun. | |
| Well you told me last night that you think | |
| About how you and I met in the spring of our lives. | |
| You've regressed to the sting, | |

| Raise me to the limits you gave me then. | |
| Save me from the river of sin again, again, again | |
| Black River | |
| Black River | |
| You'll chase, you'll wither, your sin, black river! | |
| You'll chase, you'll wither, your sin, black river! | |
| You'll chase, you'll wither, your sin, black river! | |
| You'll chase, you'll wither, your sin, black river! |
