Blackened Waters by Black Label Society

nd here i stand
i find myself alone again
the miles ive walked
loss of hope and loss of friends
yet i keep on running
and i wont look back
the waters rise
you never know just where they're at
the waters turn
yeah, yeah
the hardships we endure
yeah, yeah
you ain't the only son
or forgotten daughter
we have drowned in blackened waters

the sun has set
the endless stream where nothing lasts
forever damned
today, tomorrow, and all the past
yet i keep on running
and i wont look back
the waters rise
you never know just where they're at
the waters turn
yeah, yeah
the hardships we endure
yeah, yeah
you ain't the only son
or forgotten daughter
we have drowned in blackened waters

the waters turn
yeah yeah
the hardships we endure
yeah, yeah
you ain't the only son
or forgotten daughter
we are drowned

Also by them, Dead Meadow

All alone at last
Years roll by so fast
Twisted and insane
The house you built
No longer the same

Once you're there
Once you're there
You can't come back
Nothing lives
Nothing grows
Inside the dead meadow

Months keep rolling by
Live another day, then you die
ghosts inside your head
we choose our paths
when all is done and said

Once you're there
Once you're there
You can't come back
Nothing lives
Nothing grows
Inside the dead meadow

Lastly, High Hopes by Pink Floyd

beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
In a world of magnets and miracles
our troughts strayed constandly and without boundary
The ringing of the division bell had begin

Along the long road and on down the causeway
Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
Running before time took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
With friends surrounded
The night of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfuried
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Eneumbered forever by desire and ambition
There's a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road we've been so many time

The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river

Forever and ever
