The Give Up Gene - dEUS

The lack of laughter’s contagious

It spreads the panic within

Only the fool is courageous

When he goes for a swim

I found the perfect companion

I let him talk for a while

And I will give him a hand

After he gave me a smile

I wanna talk to the captain

About libations and sex

I bet his loft is amazing

Twice as big as the next

He doesn’t dwell on the details

And he works in a suit

His soul is tied to the sea

his hands are hardened by wood

Cause I am the river

I am the sea

Only the darkness

Is bigger than me

I sail the left

I sail to the right

The backwash of empire

Stays by my side

What language are you talking

When you say it’s murder out there?

I’ll be the perfect companion

To translate your despair

You know nothing ever works here

An opportunity missed

And how steel will reply

When you hit it with your fist

Cause I am the river

I am the sea

Only the darkness

Is bigger than me

I sail the left

I sail to the right

The backwash of empire

Stays by my side

Not give it up
