Fading River Eraserheads

[?] supposed to say
God gave me a cure and I threw it away
Everything was set that afternoon
But my fingers felt like tapping that long silly tune, oh no

[?] after a few scary seconds
[?] run out amok
[?] perceive me
Next time, I’ll tell you when it’s time to laugh

I fell the first time
I don’t want to fall again
I drain up all the water in the fading river
‘Coz I don’t want to drown again
I don’t want to drown again
I, I, I don’t want to drown again

Maybe I need more time to find out
The other person inside of you
And I thought I knew the storm but
I don’t want to sing the blues

Been a pretty quiet night
Everything just stood while I look into the light
A hundred bigger thoughts crash through my brain but
[?] fade away [?] in vain
