The River- Good Charlotte

Posted on January 9th, 2008 in Song of the Day by Tatertot

Good CharlotteI love the song “The River” by Good Charlotte featuring M. Shadows & Synyster Gates from Avenged Sevenfold. I love Good Charlotte and this song is my favorite! I like the part where M. Shadows & Synyster Gates sing because he has such a unique kind of scratchy voice. It doesn’t sound bad, it sounds awesome! It is an alternative song. Joel Madden is such an awesome singer! He is kind of high pitched but still really great!
Love,
Tayler!

Here are the lyrics for “The River”:

As I walk through the valley
of the shadow of LA
The footsteps that were next to me
have gone their separate ways
I’ve seen enough now
to know that beautiful things
don’t always stay that way
I’ve done enough now
to know this beautiful place
isn’t everything they say

I heard that evil comes disguised
Like a city of angels
I’m walking towards the light

Baptized in the river
I’ve seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I’ve done a lot of things wrong
But I swear I’m a believer
Like the prodigal son
I was out on my own
Now I’m trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I’m delivered
I’m delivered

(M. Shadows)
You’re from a small town
you’re gonna grow up fast
underneath these lights
Down in Hollywood on the boulevard
the dead come back to life
To the praying Mother
The worried Father

Let your children go
If they come back they’ll come home stronger
and if they don’t you’ll know

They say that evil comes disguised
Like a city of angels
I’m walking towards the light

Baptized in the river
I’ve seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I’ve done a lot of things wrong
But I swear I’m a believer
Like the prodigal son
I was out on my own
Now I’m trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I’m delivered
I’m delivered

Baptized in the river (on my own)
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered
(on my own)
(on my own)
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered
Baptized in the river (on my own)
I wanna be delivered

I confess I’m a sinner
I’ve seen a vision of my life
And I wanna be delivered
