Nix from Holy Grove by Holy Grove

mistakes​ ​are​ ​made
by​ ​fools​ ​who​ ​pray
in​ ​the​ ​dark​ ​for​ ​the​ ​babe
in​ ​the​ ​hopes​ ​that​ ​you’ll​ ​find​ ​him by​ ​the​ ​river
unbaptised​ ​and​ ​brave to​ ​their​ ​watery​ ​grave
trying​ ​to​ ​find​ ​that​ ​which
directs​ ​you​ ​away​ ​from​ ​their​ ​lair
yeah​ ​the​ ​river​ ​wild
Rowan,​ ​run​ ​along​ ​my​ ​child
three​ ​ladies​ ​wait ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​with​​raven​​hair
at​ ​the​ ​edge​ ​their​ ​legs​ ​wet
in​ ​the​ ​hopes​ ​that​ ​you’ll​ ​find​ ​them​ ​there
unbaptised​ ​and​ ​brave
to​ ​their​ ​watery​ ​grave
tried​ ​to​ ​find​ ​​ ​that​ ​which
directs​ ​you​ ​away​ ​from​ ​their​ ​lair
yeah​ ​that​ ​river​ ​wild
Rowan,​ ​run​ ​along​ ​my​ ​child
from​ ​their​ ​reach,​ ​from​ ​that​ ​beach where​ ​you​ ​once​ ​smiled
yeah​ ​you​ ​know​ ​the​ ​rivers​ ​wild
relying​ ​on​ ​your​ ​impulses
endless​ ​corruption​ ​with​ ​the​ ​changing​ ​tides those​ ​loveless​ ​hallucinations
that​ ​terrorize
and​ ​soon​ ​their​ ​grip​ ​is​ ​gonna​ ​take​ ​you​ ​under past​ ​the​ ​point​ ​of​ ​no​ ​return
forgotten​ ​and​ ​out​ ​numbered
and​ ​left​ ​to​ ​burn
x2
the​ ​pathway​ ​to​ ​your​ ​damnation ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​fear​​the​​maidens
good​ ​intentions
cause​ ​for​ ​concern
soon​ ​you​ ​will​ ​learn treacherous​ ​bathing you’ll​ ​need​ ​saving
hang​ ​back​ ​in​ ​the​ ​trees from​ ​infantile​ ​fantasies
