From the recording 2001 • City (collaborations with peter gabriel's real world/hector zazou/joe jackson ...)
Lyrics
And the descension into darkness
And no hand forthcoming
And the voices in the wilderness
Asking “Is this the way?”
No, no, no
“Surely someone must know?”
No, no, no
“Are you or are you not my brother?”
Then I’ll figure it out myself
So I went down to the river to teach myself to drink
So I went down to the river to teach myself to feel
So we went down to the river to teach ourselves to think
So we went down to the river to teach ourselves to heal
