lyrics

From the river to the coast:
Lumber, ice, and ships we boast
Always cutting until it bleeds
Always taking more than we need

Building towns along its flow, as we curse its undertow
Industries beginning to falter, so we pillage the river's altar
Dumping waste into her gut, as we carry this selfish glut

She is dead and headless now
And we claim "we don't know how"
She becomes a sickening mess
Her rites are read as she's laid to rest

But her lovers are remaining strong,
Dedicating their lives to her song
She sings, "tempt me, tempt me, tempt me...
Just wait and see"

Down by the Kennebec
Down by the river bed
She will cut your neck
She will take your head
