Black [bad word] beneath this ground
Black river flows forever but he makes no sound
 [bad word] through me here now and [bad word] through your children too
 [bad word] through every man, woman, living thing, [bad word] trough the wires that feed your thinking too

Fading, growing
Fading, growing
Breathing, flowing
Fading, growing

Receiving the hands of light [bad word] down from up high
Receiving the hands that make their mark on the back of the sky
Receiving the days that feed the night
Receiving the years [bad word] back through time
Black river's born in the mouths of old and dying men
Black river flows through the belly of everyone

Fading, growing
Fading, growing
Breathing, receiving
Fading, growing
