The Longest River Lyrics

Cover art for The Longest River lyrics by Anciients

Could the "longest river" be death?? Water and rivers (Styx etc.) are often associated with death.

Lyrics such as:

"Screaming from beyond The sealing of the tomb Ruler of the soul The river's running true"

Lead me to believe that the song is talking about the inevitability / certainty of death, no matter the life you have lived ... death does not discriminate and awaits us all.

My Interpretation
