This River Is Wild by The Killers!!

If this vid is half as good as the song it's made for...then I'll be a very happy lad!!! (but hey! I'll let u decide that!!)...

Enjoy!!!...

LYRICS:
Leaves are falling down, on the beautiful ground
I heard a story from the man in red
He said "The leaves are falling down, such a beautiful sound,
Son, I think you better go ahead"
But you, always hold your, head up high
Cause it's a long, long, long way down
This town, was meant for passing through
Boy, it ain't nothin' new
Now go and show 'em that the world, stayed round
But it's a long, long, long way down

You better run for the hills, before they burn
Listen to the sound of the world
Then watch it turn
I just wanna show you what, I know
And catch you when the current, lets you go

Or I should I just get along, with myself
I never did get along with, everybody else
I've been trying hard to do, what's right
But you know, I could stay here
All night...
And watch the clouds fall from the sky
This river is wild
This river is wild...


Run for the hills, before they burn
Listen to the sound of the world
Don't watch it turn, but shake a little
Sometimes I'm nervous, when I talk, and shake a little
Sometimes I hate, the line I walk
I just wanna show you what, I know
And catch you when the current, lets you go
Or I should I just get along, with myself
I never did get along with, everybody else
I've been trying hard, to do, what's right
But you know, I could stay here
All night...
And watch the clouds fall from the sky

Because this river is wild...
God speed ya, boy
This river is wild...

Now Adam's taking bombs
And he's stuck on his mom
Because that bitch keeps trying to make him pray
He's with the hippie in the park
Comin' over the dark
Just trying to get some of that little girl play

You better run for the hills before they burn
Listen to the sound of the world
Don't watch it turn

I just wanna show you what, I know
And catch you when the current, lets you go
Or I should I just get along, with myself
I never did get along with, everybody else
I've been trying hard to do, what's right
But you know I could stay here
All night...
And watch the clouds fall from the sky
The pain is hell in me, tonight

Because this river is wild...
God speed ya, boy
This river is wild...

This river is wild...
God speed ya, boy
This river is wild...

Now the cars are everywhere
Face the dust, at the fairground
I don't think I've ever seen so many headlights
But there's something pulling me
The circus and their crew
Well they're just passing through
Making sure that merry still goes, 'round
But it's a long, long, long way down

  • one of my favorite Killers songs.

  • i can fully relate to this song...the first time i heard it it was with a guy that i still have a crush on..lol

  • Great song... As for the video, it's a master lesson in bad taste. Sorry if that was too honest.

  • @bjenkins2429 its a great song to start the killers experience with... and then it keeps getting better lol

  • This is the song that I told my friend to listen to if he wanted to get into listening to the Killers. Now he's an even bigger fan than I am!

  • Wow I thought I was the only one that could listen to all their albums back to back a million times without it getting old. Guess the killers are simply the best band that ever lived (:

  • thats thing. i get along with myself great but everybody else lets me leave myself

  • go boys,
