| Black River - China |
 |
June 1996
The River Huai, like many rivers in China,
can no longer supply local agriculture with
its lifeblood - water.
A lethal chemical cocktail has left white,
effervescent foam bubbling along its surface.
But the determination of central government
to clean up the black, polluted river by the
year 2000 meets with resistance. Local
government is torn between a clean river or
environmental checks on economic development.
Paper factories supporting 20,000 people
profit by disposing sludgy pollutants in the
river. Hard access footage reveals that even
a 'model' factory hoses frothy, evil smelling
water into the Huai. A fisherman on a nearby
house boat has not caught a fish in ten
years. He dissolves aluminium compounds in a
bucket of river water just to purify it for
household chores. In the city of Bengbu a
restaurateur keeps his customers happy by
rinsing his vegetables in bottled mineral
water. Secret interviews show that local
people believe it will be impossible to clean
the river up by 2000.

I've lived my life on Black River
That's the kind of life I have led
I spent my days on Black River
That's how I kept my family fed.
Refrain
Now the tide won't rise on black river
And they say it's due to decline
I can't wrap my thoughts around that
It's too much for my troublin' mind
It was once, such a wild thing
Struggling against the earth to be free
Now it's such a shy thing
We must coax it gingerly
They say nuthin' can last forever
And they say this too shall pass
I look out on to vlack river
And I wonder how long this can last
They say black river will last forever
It will just cost more to take a drink
They say there will always be a black river
What else could anyone think?
Now I look on in morbid disbelief
At the things that my fellow man has done
I look to the East and I see the rising sun
And I know our day has just begun.
They say black river will last forever
It will just cost more to take a drink
They say there will always be a black river
What else could anyone think?

LYRICS Black River part 1
Waiting on my soul, just waiting on my dream
For everlasting fear, Across there´s
something real
The night will go, I turn my back to the east
As the earth do scorn come higher, sleep and
grip
O my lord come closer, my lord come closer
My lord come closer, my lord come closer
Waiting on my soul, just waiting for me at
all
For every casted beast, they visit for
something real
The wind of northern cold, will turn my back
to the gold and
The wind of southern breeze, will turn my
back to the east
Cos I`m waiting on my soul, I stand, here,
waiting for me at all
Unbury rusted bones, they`re far gone to
cross the roar
I´m lost inside, I´m trapped in my selfish
kind of reality
The night will go, my heart will show with my
selfish kind of realm
Cos I´m Just Waiting on my soul, jJust
waiting for me at all
I can see in this running i`m first and last
From the silence the pressure is growing on
I can clear this empty space alone
At least deep down, my world is going on
Waiting on my soul, Just waiting on my dream
For everlasting fear, Across there´s
something real
Waiting on my soul, just waiting for me at
all
For every casted beast, they visit for
something real
The wind of northern cold, will turn my back
to the gold and
The wind of southern breeze, will turn my
back to the east
Cos I`m Waiting on my soul, I stand, here,
waiting for me at all
Unbury rusted bones, they`re far gone to
cross the roar
I´m lost inside, I´m trapped in my selfish
kind of reality
The night will go, my heart will show wWith
my selfish kind of realm
Cos I´m Just Waiting on my soul, I´m Just
waiting for me at all
