Cry Me A River Songtext / Lyric

I think that someone is trying to kill me

Infecting my blood and destroying my mind

No man of the flesh could ever stop me

The fight for this fish is a fight to the death



White whale - holy grail



What remorseless emperor commands me

I no longer govern my soul

I am completely immersed in darkness

As I turn my body away from the sun






White whale - holy grail



Split your lungs with blood and thunder

When you see the white whale

Break your backs and crack your oars men

If you wish to prevail



This ivory leg is what propels me

Harpoons thrust in the sky

Aim directly for his crooked brow

And look him straight in the eye



White whale - holy grail
