At Avren's edge, I held you in my hands
And on that windy morning you were buried in the sand
Though the Horned King was defeated, the pain still lingers
Fflewddur wrote a ballad but there's blood on our fingers
Hen Wen saw it coming, Great Belin's vision
The plight of the dreamer, now you're gone, and I've been fishing
For a reason to keep fighting for the fans I've since betrayed
Heartbreaking like a string when I tell them I'm okay
Yeah, I first befriended death when I jumped in the cauldron
And I was resurrected, those adventures were awesome
From Morva to Strongholds, back home to Caer Dallben
But now this pig keeper's saying he sees autumn in my coffin?
Tasting sleep again, I wasn't ready, wasn't sorry
And by the damp embankment I was early to the party
With this friend who kindly shared his last apple
So why we sinking to the bottom like two statues?
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
I'm sinking to the bottom of the Rivers of Avren
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
It's where I say goodbye because it's where my path ends
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
I'm sinking to the bottom of the Rivers of Avren
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
It's where I will say goodbye
I still remember how the Horned King explained it
Post-traumatic pain, we sustained it, I retained it
A Gwythaint nest in my mind, I was buried
Posing for the portraits in the legacy we carried
And as the future heroes dream about the magic
Prydain finds its saviors while they're scheming in its attics
Here the name they once chanted is now whispered in the halls
Taran's been a ghost for years behind these gilded startled walls
Then step in and don't stall though the cauldron's so black
Every fear, every fall to the void, no going back
Woken kiln of the night, raising armies from the grave
No rivals in your sight when you're sleeping bold and brave
Captured and cast into the water's cold embrace
Leave your gloried past behind as you see Annuvin's face
And when you're ready to dive in where the river flows forever
I'll find you down in Annwn where our coil's never severed
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
I'm sinking to the bottom of the Rivers of Avren
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
It's where I say goodbye because it's where my path ends
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
I'm sinking to the bottom of the Rivers of Avren
In the Rivers of Avren, the Rivers of Avren
It's where I will say goodbye
Sick of all this competition, wishing I was fishing
Not dishing up all this gossip on everything I've been missing
In Prydain the mission's finished it's been sick 'cause how I'm living
Is dismissing possibilities for quitting all this slipping?
Sick of all this competition, wishing I was fishing
