In the Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the water, they sort it out
They were waist to neck in December somehow
In the water, they twist and shout
They were born again, so they can start living now
In the water, they saw the face
Of the man who was haunted, chained and disgraced
In the water, they asked them both
"How did you get the gold without digging any holes?"
Never had it any other way
Drowning in the grace
Never had a chance to break apart our heart for them to see
It's really a disgrace
"Hide your daughters", the old men say
You were young once before, you know how we get our way
Feel the horror with no delay
We all see what once was beautiful has turned and old and grey
Never had it any other way
Drowning in the grace
Never had a chance to break apart our heart for them to see
It's really a disgrace
I can't fake it enough
Can't say it enough
Can't do it enough
I can't make it enough
Can't fake it enough
I don't want it enough
So everyone'll wait
Never had it any other way
Drowning in the grace
Never had a chance to break apart our heart for them to see
It's really a disgrace
I can't say it enough
Can't sing it enough
So I'll find another way
And we sing this morning that wonderful and grand ol' message
And I don't know about you but I never get tired of it
Seven years (x7)
