The Smashing Pumpkins - Murnau Lyrics

Illumed for promise
Do as bound
Commonly in circles I ache as ignite

Time's by essence
Heat by flint
Would I yearn for tenderness?
A light within

Here I fought for you
A pall as cast and through
Though danger said I'd be reborn
We live and ride alone

As the river rolls
As the river rolls
Lord have mercy on my soul

A screen but captures you
In thrall yet ghost's remove
With languor, said I'd be reborn
We live and ride alone

As the river rolls
As the river rolls
As the river rolls
As the river rolls

Lord, help me, from my soul
As the river rolls
As the river rolls
Lord, help me save my soul

You dare not follow
You dare not follow
You dare not follow
As the river rolls
As the river rolls
