Don't drink the water (edit)


Come out come out
No use in hiding
Come now come now
Can you not see?
There's no place here
What were you expecting
Not room for both
Just room for me
So you will lay your arms down
Yes I will call this home
Away away
You have been banished
Your land is gone
And given me
And here I will spread my wings
Yes I will call this home
What's this you say
You feel a right to remain
Then stay and I will bury you
What's that you say
Your father's spirit still lives in this place
I will silence you
Here's the hitch
Your horse is leaving
Don't miss your boat
It's leaving now
And as you go I will spread my wings
Yes I will call this home
I have no time to justify to you
Fool you're blind, move aside for me
All I can say to you my new neighbor
Is you must move on or I will bury you
Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here
I have retired them
I can breathe my own air
I can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls
I'll build heaven and call it home
'Cause you're all dead now
I live with my justice
I live with my greedy need
I live with no mercy
I live with my frenzied feeding
I live with my hatred
I live with my jealousy
I live with the notion
That I don't need anyone but me
Don't drink the water
There's blood in the water

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Dave Matthews Band is an American musical group formed in Virginia in the early 1990s by Dave Matthews, a native of South Africa. The band has gained a large fan base thanks to constant college tours. Although their music is rooted in live performance, the group's acoustic rock is influenced by jazz and world music, creating a mix that's difficult to pin down. Among the most representative songs are "Crash Into Me", "Ants Marching" and "What Would You Say". The self-titled debut album (1996) marked the beginning of a successful career, with subsequent albums like "Under the Table and Dreaming" (1994) and "Everyday" (2001) that have consolidated their popularity.
