The river has run wild tonight The birds have stopped singing and I've lost my sight And you You're not around I keep my ground Just quiet The river has run wild tonight It hurts to see you burning, burning oh so bright See through My looking gla** I sell the past It's still oh so quiet There's trouble in the heartland You're drifting your own way There is trouble It's a wasteland There's something you don't say Toss me in the ocean and see if I float I'm causing a commotion on a sinking boat And you You come undone One by one Let's start a riot There's trouble in the heartland You're drifting your own way There is trouble It's a wasteland There's something you don't say There's something you don't say There's something you don't say There's something you don't say There's something you don't say Toss me in the ocean and watch me drown Oh, one man's smile is another man's frown And you You're not around I keep my ground Just quiet There's trouble in the heartland You're drifting your own way There is trouble It's a wasteland There's something you don't say The river has run wild tonight
