The Black River Song Lyrics

Slowly I fall with the rain & the future looks grim once again
Bottles and pills - I´m up on the hills
Stuck with a ball and a chain
This city is so obsolete - the drunks they f*** up on the streets
But that´s the way it goes when you´re down in Västerås
Sick of life ain´t that a treat
Straight out of nowhere - it´s coming on fast
I sit here and wonder how long will it last
Some of my best friends are gone
And the others don´t know where they belong
So light up the sky - the beat must go on
Raise my glass for the black river song
And drink all my problems away
Tomorrow is just another day
Lonely & hammered at night and true love is way out of sight
A broke working class will shove it up your a**
But I know it won´t make it alright
Straight out of nowhere - it´s coming on fast
I sit here and wonder how long will it last
Some of my best friends are gone
And the others don´t know where they belong
So light up the sky - the beat must go on
Raise your glass for the black river song
And drink all your problems away
Tomorrow is just another day
Let the punishment finally begin - for a life I traded for sin
Yeah,I sure paid the cost for a love that I lost
Strung out with a bottle of Gin
So light up the sky - the beat must go on
Raise your glass for the black river song
And drink all your problems away
Tomorrow is just another day
