I went down to the swollen river,
I had no fear of drowning,
I peeped over the bridges barrier,
into swirling chocolate brown,
I went down the banks so slimy,
look how it does eddy,
I grabbed the nearest branch right by me for myself to steady,
held my head in my two hands,
I felt I was now ready,
had a little clarity pang I lost all my sense of dread, I have no reason to return.
Submerged in water up to my waist
now my mind revolves in my head,
lost my balance my ankle I did twist,
my fingers frozen red.
I felt like one of those mental b******s,
I lost my shoe.
How I've fooled all my a**ociates,
how I loved that shoe,
but it has no reason to return
