Gustav - At the Rivers' Edge lyrics

They took some bricks and built a wall They made it solid, strong and tall Built it wide from bank to shore - bank to shore Close to the guarded borderline Where freedom flows into the end of time Ships still take ground - without sound At the river's edge In the border zone Where the wind blows cold And all sleep has gone Bodies and memories Of stranded caravans Are buried with their dreams And struggles and ties All symbols and sense We don't need your mercy Don't need an act of grace We only want to live a good life And sometimes change the place Drop your rotty curtains We will kindle them to shed light And if you try to slack this fire We will still be here to reignite - reignite Under the cloud of night Under the cover of trees Under the scream of fog It's getting on the way Under the cloud of night Under the cover of trees Under the scream of fog We're gonna multiply Under the cloud of night Under the cover of trees Under the scream of fog We're going to organize Under the cloud of night Under the cover of trees Under the scream of fog We'll be a gathering star Under the cover of trees Under the scream of fog Sooner or later we'll walk across our boundaries At the river's edge In the border zone Where the wind blows cold And all sleep has gone Bodies and memories Of stranded caravans Are buried with their dreams In struggles and ties All symbols in sense.
