I can see wind upon the rise, here under glass i can see
Outside, in formaldehyde, waiting to set myself free

Up around the river bend, i was separated from you
You became a citizen of a world held like a zoo
One step through the airlock
Where the chemicals can't get through
Up around the river bend, i was separated from you

Like the ocean drips from the sky, i sit here just waiting to be
I can see specimens in jars, waiting, waiting to be

Up around the river bend, the specialists changed you
You became a prisoner of a world kept like a zoo
Outside, real life - waiting for you and for me
Outside all our lives - awaiting the chance to be

Get away from me, get away from me now - it's all wrong
It's too late for me, it's too late for me now - it's all gone, you have gone
Will you pray for me, will you pray for me now - all night long

Up around the river bend
Up around the river bend - satan's angels fly

Hey everybody, don't you know we can go outside
Yeah, we can party in the formaldehyde
