the rusalka and the shepherd girl - the forgetmenauts lyrics
(shepherd girl)
i was in the rushes
by the banks of the river sweet
the current that tugged at my skirts
nearly strong enough to pull me right off of my feet
and i should’ve listened to grandmother
and i should’ve stayed with the sheep
but the face of the girl in the water is the same as the face of the girl who’s been haunting my dreams
she comes to me every night
her body a [song of hope?] in the candlelight
tempts me away from the lord
salvation anew past the banks of the river shore
whispers my name in an unchristian way
tells me for once, i don’t have to behave
i don’t care if she’s the devil, i don’t want to be saved
i lay down in the current and let the river carry me away
(rusalka)
lay down, christian lass
chaste no more and free at last
think no more of sin and toil
sheep and wolves, your mortal coil
in baptism bow your head
in river rushes make our bed
leave behind your narrow home
and men shall leave you well alone
marriage is a d*mning curse
a life of servitude and worse
let’s [spurn/burn?] the blood and flesh of christ
and lay with me beneath the ice
a dowry of rotten gold
forsake for me your narrow world
current catch you, dance and twirl
the rusalka, and the shepherd girl
the current catch you, dance and twirl
the rusalka, and the shepherd girl
the current catch you, dance and twirl
the rusalka, and the shepherd girl
the current catch you, dance and twirl
the rusalka, and the shepherd girl
the current catch you, dance and twirl
the rusalka, and the shepherd girl
