Lyrics of Drinking from the River by Steven James Adams
Like an animal in a sack
With your paws behind your back at the cash register
You could be a coward if that′s what it takes
You know everyone makes mistakes. It's what you tell yourself everyday
And if you start scratching your mark on the walls
Because that activity no longer enthralls. Something else will have taken its place
Drinking from the river
Until it runs dry
You′re howling at the moon
And you don't know why
Two fingers up at the law
One chosen carefully from each paw, for maximum impact
We see you out spraying the lamposts and trees every evening before you sleep
It's the twilight piss patrol
Drinking from the river
Until it runs dry
Howling at the moon
And you don′t know why
When you forget where you buried your bone
You go digging for another one further from home
All night
You′re still howling at the moon
And you don't know why
Sometimes you need to rest for a while
It takes time to catch you up but it wears you out and now you need to rest for a while
Like an animal on a chain
Let your neck take the worst of the strain, when you′re losing your sense of place
You could be a coward and no one would know
But the dancing lion at the end of the show. Or what you tell yourself every day
Drinking from the river
Until it runs dry
Howling at the moon
And you don't know why
When you forget where you buried your bone, you go digging for another one further from home. All night
You′re still howling at the moon
And you don't know why
You′re still howling at the moon
And you don't know why
You're still howling at the moon
And you don′t know why
