"The River" lyrics - WAGE WAR

[Intro:]
Trust is dead, like everything else you said
Each word more meaningless than the next
Your lips and your lies have severed the ties
I don't deserve this and you don't deserve me!

I should've known but I doubted myself
Gave you every benefit of a doubt, I wanted no one else!
But I guess I wasn't enough for you!
[cough, cough, cough] BLEAGH!

[Chorus:]
Don't pretend like we can recover, when you chose the lust of another

Where did I go wrong?
I know I wasn't perfect but I certainly tried so hard
Was it a moment of weakness, or was it the thrill?
Did you ache for a feeling, that you faked to feel?

[Chorus:]
Don't pretend like we can recover, when you chose the lust of another

[Breakdown / Bridge:]
I see your wandering eyes and second glances
I see, through your lies, no second chances!

Cut me free, you'll never be what I need
I hope you choke on the words I was lead to believe
Like a puppet on your strings; control means everything!
And in my heart, I want to forgive you
That doesn't mean I'll forget, you'll always be my regret!
You'll always be my regret!

[Outro:]
Here's to a past I'll never need
No here's to you
Rest in peace!
