I got the best horses that they could give me
I got an old man to saddle them up, for me
It's time to go down
To the river
Will all my courage
In a bright and colorful carriage
With no roof, no doors and no black (not a hearse)
I've taken the poison
It hurts already
Here we go now to the river
I don't want to be buried
Don't follow me
'Cause this is how we do it (This is how we do it)
Don't follow me
If you care about tradition

I let the horses go
And now we roll down into the river
And I'll slowly get out
And float downstream headfirst
It will feel like flying, weightless, straight up
Until the end of the river
It will feel like flying, weightless, straight up
Until the end of the river
It will feel like flying, weightless, straight up

Have you ever seen the fog
And thought about its color
Doesn't it seem like a place to go and fly away

Here we go now to the river
