Lyrics
Once again I'll swallow my fate
and wash it down with a sip of deceit
I set my code to a heightened state
of abnegation in which I'll retreat
Once again I've been dragged down
the currents pulling me all around
my justifications are my pleasure ground
I'll find a story that I'll expound
Yeah,I dont need to know
Yeah,another episode
By and by I'll wear the guise
and project the verity I've devised
I'd rather swim in the river of denial
than not look myself in the eyes
On and on I'll sing my song
and buy the picture I have drawn
I'd rather swim in the river of denial
than concede that somethings wrong
Once again I'll take the easy way out
and quietly remove any doubts
my heart tries to warn me but the mind has more clout
the seeds of deception are ready to sprout
once again I'll dodge the hounds
and turn it over to my imagination
and damn the evidence I have found
I'd rather live with my fabrications
Yeah,I dont want to know
Yeah,another horror show
More and more I slam the door
and get to work on my storyboard
I'd rather swim in the river of denial
than live with the truth ashore
On and on I'll sing my song
and buy the picture I have drawn
I'd rather swim in the river of denial
than concede that somethings wrong
I cant stop me,you cant stop me
they wont stop me,we cant stop me
I'd rather swim in the river of denial
than believe in a world so cruel
On and on I'll sing my song
and buy the picture I have drawn
I'd rather drown in the river of denial
than sail with a ship of fools
