River
cento Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
coming down like a river
over all of us
and it's coming
coming down like a river (and I don't know)
over all of us
After all this time
after all this lies
there's no sorrow
I see my better days
They are changing the way that I used to be
Shines over all
a light from the ocean
if you see it, it's true
reflecting along in my head
And it's coming
coming down like a river
over all of us
And then I walk the line
I'm older
and I don't even cry
but I'm becoming
I see my better days
they are changing the way that I used to be
Shines over all
a light from the ocean
if you see it, it's true
reflecting along in my head
And it's coming
coming down like a river
over all of us
and it's coming
coming down like a river (and I don't know)
over all of us
I can see the past today
take a step into the darkness
you can shake the pain away
paralyzed in this wrong place
Shines over all
a light from the ocean
if you see it, it's true
reflecting along in my head
The opening lines of the song "River" by Cento set the tone for the rest of the lyrics. The metaphor of water flowing like a river is used to describe the inevitability of change and how this change affects everyone. The words "coming down like a river" are repeated throughout the song, emphasizing this idea of a force that cannot be stopped and that affects us all. The lyrics suggest that this force can be both powerful and beautiful.
The chorus suggests that this force is something that is not to be feared but acknowledged. It is something that connects us all, making us part of a bigger picture. The lyrics suggest that the river is a force for good that brings positive change - "after all this time life has color, after all this lies there's no sorrow". The river brings change to people's lives, helping them to see things differently and creating the possibility of a new perspective.

And it's coming
Trouble is approaching
coming down like a river
It will be engulfing us completely
over all of us
No one will be spared
and it's coming
The trouble is getting closer
coming down like a river (and I don't know)
I can't predict how severe it will be for us
After all this time
Despite everything that happened earlier
life has color
We still have the potential to feel joy
after all this lies
Despite all the deception
there's no sorrow
There is hope still
I see my better days
I am optimistic about my future
They are changing the way that I used to be
I am becoming a better person
Shines over all
Hope can be found everywhere
a light from the ocean
The positivity is like the vast ocean
if you see it, it's true
If you believe it, it will come true
reflecting along in my head
I am thinking about it all the time
And then I walk the line
I am staying on the path
I'm older
I am growing wiser
and I don't even cry
I am strong enough to handle things
but I'm becoming
I am changing for the better
I see my better days
I am optimistic about my future
they are changing the way that I used to be
I am becoming a better person
I can see the past today
I am reflecting on my past
take a step into the darkness
I am moving forward despite the unknown
you can shake the pain away
I can find solace and heal from the pain
paralyzed in this wrong place
I am stuck in a bad situation
Shines over all
Hope can be found everywhere
a light from the ocean
The positivity is like the vast ocean
if you see it, it's true
If you believe it, it will come true
reflecting along in my head
I am thinking about it all the time
