Review The Song (10)Print the Lyrics
Lyrics by Layne Staley
Music by Staley, McCready, Martin, Saunders


My pain is self-chosen
At least, so The Prophet says
I could either burn
Or cut off my pride and buy some time
A head full of lies is the weight, tied to my waist

The River of Deceit pulls down, oh oh
The only direction we flow is down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down

My pain is self-chosen
At least I believe it to be
I could either drown
Or pull off my skin and swim to shore
Now I can grow a beautiful shell for all to see

The River of Deceit pulls down, yeah
The only direction we flow is down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down
Down, oh down

The pain is self-chosen, yeah
Our pain is self-chosen

Review about River Of Deceit

rivert and nutshell | Reviewer: jaw | 10/20/09

I totally agree - these are seriously powerful songs - all od alice and mad season are killer but these two really connect - great stuff =- brilliant - i never tire of hearing them - wish the radio around her respected.



Never Forgotten | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/25/09

Layne Staley will live forever through his music and in our hearts. He was an artist and poet in the truest sense. The people he worked with were amazing too...but what he brought to the music is what makes the hair on your skin stand up and a chill down your spine. LOVE LAYNE ALWAYS!!!!!



nutshell | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/27/09

True- I forgot about nutshell. I heard it a few days ago after not listening to it for almost 15 years. Still sends shivers up my spine. River of Deceit is another one that just creeps me out...I miss this shit



Layne IS A GOD!!! | Reviewer: Johnny "Frickin" Rock | 12/29/08

you cannot deny his work and the greatest dedication from the band! he(Layne) is too good for his own good, That's why death might have happened for that reason, yet he left us without him rockin beyond! He will never be forgotten and anyone who says otherwise is a two bit communist bastard that doesn't know his head from, not only his ASS, but from the phenom of LAYNE FUCKIN STAYLEY "REST IN PEACE BROTHER" Alice In Chains will Still Live No Matter What, And GIve Tons Of Credit To The Otherz They Deserve It, Not Only That They Are Continuing On, Which Is What Layne Would Have Wanted,But The Great Musicians In "AIC," So Give Props Dammit!

to many in indy | Reviewer: Alan | 9/28/08

You hit the nail right on the head! River of Deceit and Nutshell are two of the greatest songs ever written, and certainly two of my favorite songs from Layne, though it is hard to pick favorites.

Layne was the one of the greatest lyricists this world has ever known.

He is missed! Badly.




Layne | Reviewer: mandy in indy | 7/14/08

One of the best vocalist of all time in my opinion. If you listen to this song, and then "Nutshell" by Alice In Chains you will be a HUGE FAN :) Those are my fav's anyways :)

RIP LAYNE STALEY!!!!!!!!!!!



Mad Season | Reviewer: Jordan Cowell | 5/7/08

Pretty cool for a side project, really deep meanings in the songs, not for every grunge lover but if you're the type of person who actually listens to the lyrics I think this is a pretty good album to check out



river of deceit | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/15/08

A true masterpiece. Or in other words, a part of a true masterpiece.
The awakening of emotions when listening to this CD is fantastic. It's healing your heart and it's cleansing your mind.



Mad Season... | Reviewer: Klon | 9/16/07

Mad Season is the ultimate in bringing you introspective thoughts on yourself. Especially if you are battling drug addiction or depression.

If you would but listen to all of this CD, and apply Mr Staley's lyrics to your situation NAD you want to change, it will help.

Personally I think the entire CD rocks!
