LYRICS
The river is rising
I am wading through
The river is rising
There’s little we can do
Cornfields, wooden roofs
disappear beneath the waves
You better start climbing
The river is rising
The river is rising
It swirls against the dam
The concrete is splitting
Swept up in this plan
I am but a small man
I’m the fool who pays the bill
The city is thriving
The river is rising
Why the river turns red
No one can explain
But I can see the gorges bleed
and I feel their pain
New towers are rising
But they’re not for me
Across the horizon
I try to start anew
I cut trees and sow seeds
It’s the only thing I know
But life is surprising
The land is sliding
Life is surprising
When the river is rising
