Beautiful: The Ballad of River Song (Doctor Who) [Video]

Omaha, Nebraska-based singer/songwriter Ally Rhodes composed this beautiful ballad paying homage to Doctor Who character River Song in her very own special way. Lyrics right after the jump!

LYRICS:

there is always a way out
there’s always an escape
if you find yourself surrounded
don’t you dare close your eyes to faith

you’re a child of the darkness
born and bred to close your eyes
but you’ve learned to see with neither open
they’ll take your rights, but they can’t take your mind

the concepts that were planted in your brain
and nourished by the water of your pain
the more you love, the more they feel afraid
you never really did believe in fate

you and i breathe constellations
and twist them in our lungs to stay alive
you’ve lain in silence on the ground
but from the dirt and tears, you learned to rise
from the dirt and tears, you learned to rise

the concepts that were planted in your brain
and nourished by the water of your pain
the more you live, the more they feel afraid
you never really did believe in fate
