Hurtsfall – 12 Long Years Lyrics

Alternative

Darkest night
This is the dark night of the soul
Riding high
Looking to get out of control
I wish I could but you're never even there and if you were-
-oh god, I swear there'd be hell to pay today

Down to the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died
I went down to the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died
Inside

Lotions and potions
They won't preserve your youth
like the blood of the virgins you take under your wing
If that's your thing
And I know, I know that that's your thing
As you line your eyes and dance-
-like the last thirty years never happened at all

Down to the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died
I went down to the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died
Inside
Inside!

Down to the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years, on the thirteenth year I died
I went down through the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died
Inside
Inside!

A dozen years
A dozen years I've waited for your love
A dozen years of pain
Composing verses never heard before
The works of Shakespeare won't compare to-
-This verse I am writing you
Celebrating your immortal beauty for life

Down to the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years, on the thirteenth year I died
I went down through the rivers and down through the streams
Down to the forest and down through the trees
I waited twelve long years and on the thirteenth year I died
Inside
Inside!
