Lyrics
Far away hangs a red light
Far away, yet close enough to see
Blinking on and off, brings me closer to the edge
The earth is rolling underneath my feet
Swallow me
As I swallow you
Carry me
Jump into the river
Yeah
One more time for good measure
Once again for the pleasure
And thank you, mama, for the food I'm about to eat
And thank you for the hours I have laid with you
C'mon
Swallow me
As I swallow you
Carry me
Jump into the river
Yeah
