Lyrics

living to obey
learnt to be undervalued
all day for day
everlasting
 
strong doctrines
established by older men
strong doctrines
carved in stone   


: it was never planned     that you question their authority
: it was never planned     that you ever waste a thought on asking


down at the water, she's nobody's daughter
no regulations, no cage of frustration
down at the water, despite what they taught her 
no one will kiss her, and no one will miss her


all their threats
all their daily sanctions
all what she gets (is)
brainwashing


their daily lie
her only worth (is) virginity
she shouldn't leave her home village 
all her life

: they warned her all day    of ever going to the river
: strange men will be there, grip her up, and she'll be lost in shame


down at the water, she's nobody's daughter
no regulations, no cage of frustration
down at the water, despite what they taught her 
no one will kiss her, and no one will miss her
