Slash - The River Is Rising

To Rate
Verse 1
Another fool for rage
Another truth betrayed
Another lackey out of line
Torture and rip-apart
What was the pure of heart
Poison the well and push the lie

Pre-Chorus
All in the name of nothing
Have we been hypnotized?
No doubt the end is coming
We're out of time

Chorus
Hang on
The river is rising
Hold strong
The tide is high
Will we drown in paradise?

Verse 2
Another wicked scheme
Another static dream
Indoctrination for the blind

Pre-Chorus
All in the name of nothing
Have we been hypnotized?
No doubt the end is coming
We're out of time

Chorus
Hang on
The river is rising
Hold strong
The tide is high
A promise gone

Bridge
Seething raging from the heart

Guitar Break

Chorus
Hang on
The river is rising
Hold strong
The tide is high
A promise long gone
So don't deny it
A cold dawn is sure to rise
As we drown in paradise
