River Ghost from Reflections by Mascha

By the river, by the sea
In the water, at the beach
High-pitched cries to lure you in
I‘ll wait until you comply

A man lost in the wilderness
Or lost in his own mind
Will start to hear my frantic call
And then begins the fall

Come into my solitude
What you have or don‘t or want
It‘ll turn your heart and mind
It‘ll make you stay behind

In the river, in the sea
I float and guard the empty shore
You trust in freedom like a cure
It cannot break my spell

By the river, by the sea
In the water, at the beach
In the frosty cold I give to you
Strength to carry on

By the river, by the sea
I put this shroud onto your bones
Guide you through my barren land
It‘ll be the last you‘ll wear
