Lyrics

"Don't go there,"
I heard her say
"You can't stomach what you're gonna see."
It's down there by the waters edge
Wasted and bloated and waiting for someone else

Funny how
These things come about
When you're tied to the teeth and mouth
The sound of fury
A shot of pain
There was no real reason
No gain

I can't go down to the water's edge
I didn't do it
I saw who did
Don't go down to the waters edge
They did it once and they can do it again

It ain't no secret to me
How she got there down by the stream
Cause I'd seen her a minute before
The van pulled up and opened the door. (oh my love)

I can't say a single word
About what I saw of her
Cause her killers
They got their friends
In familiar places
I tell you man!

I can't go down to the water's edge
I didn't do it
I saw who did
Don't go down to the waters edge
They did it once and they can do it again

This ain't no fucking game
And I'm feeling so ashamed
Cause I didn't do anything
No I didn't do anything
-To stop
-To stop
-To stop
-To stop
This from
Happening
I did not do
Anything!

Don't go down to the waters edge you said to me
I didn't do it but
I saw who did you see
Don't go down to the waters edge
They did it once and they can do it again

I swear
I swear
I swear
I swear
I didn't do a thing
I should have done something
