Violent flow,
Tidal wave, surging, boiling,
Current growing stronger, stirring of the water,
Trickle started, now runs mighty to an unknown destination,
Silent, deep, heaving shake,
Sudden turning, rocking, and moving,
Shocking quake,
Trembling Earth,
That many hearts have heard,
The truth brings with it wonder,
So close it sounds like hunger.

Underground river flowing through your city,
Taking lives, breaking lives,
Sweeping lives into an underground river,
And the rain is pouring,
The level is rising, and the white washed walls scream as they fall,
Nothing stops the river,
No, nothing stops the river.

The day you were born, empty religion from schools of the learned, left you bleeding,
Glory hungry men, gave no answers,
Yeah, they were the problem,
So many had to pay,

Underground river flowing through your city,
Taking lives, breaking lives,
Sweeping lives into an underground river,
And the rain is pouring,
The level is rising, and the white washed walls scream as they fall,
Nothing stops the river,
No, nothing stops the river.

You're getting carried away.

Underground river flowing through your city, whoa,
Taking, breaking, sweeping lives.

It's an underground river, and it's flowing through your city,
Yes, it's taking lives, breaking lives, sweeping lives,
It's an underground river, and it's flowing through your city,
Underground river.
