Drifted off in the dead of night
Lips are blue in the cheap black light
Stood so tall when he was on his feet
But that overdose put you underneath
It's another mother that lost her son
In the river of oblivion
It's another daughter that's way too young
In the river of oblivion
She went down to forget herself
And the stories she had left to tell
Measured down to the milligram
But a tired heart doesn't give a damn
It's another mother that lost her son
In the river of oblivion
It's another daughter that's way too young
In the river of oblivion
Secrets never do get told when you're laying cold
