I was born in a ghost town
Chains rattling, suffocating
I was born in a ghost town where they don't
Raise the dead
Somewhere in Minnesota
Snow covered in grey, light breaking
In the streets of the city where they don't
Raise the dead
So take all that's left of my love
And give my body to the river
Take all that's left of my love
And take my body, black river
Give me something to lean on
Give me something to hold my head up
Get me out of the cycle
That's dirtied down in disgust
But maybe I'm just a patsy
And maybe this whole damn thing is a set up
'Cause if there's not starting over
All we already dust
So take all that's left of my love
And give my body to the river
Take all that's left of my love
And take my body, black river
Watching over me
Watching over me
I'm going under and it's
Taking hold of me
It was only a glimmer
Flashing over a black horizon
It was only a glimmer
But it could raise the dead
So take all that's left of my love
(And give my body to the river)
Take all that's left of my love
(And take my body, black river)
Take all that's left of my love
(And give my body to the river)
Take all that's left of my love
And take my body, black river
