Living Water

There's something about water
The way it sometimes
Falls from the skies

There's something about the way
It sometimes falls
Like tears from my eyes

There's something about water
How it sometimes only is dripping a little
And how sometimes it's very still

There's something about the way
It calms my nerves and eases my pain
So much better than a pill

There's something about water
That reminds me of you
There's so many ways you both amaze

There's something about the way
Like you, it sometimes runs away from me
And sometimes, like in the deepest well, it just stays

Overview

Sometimes Destruction
Walks by my side
Trying to tempt me into abandoning
Everything I believe in

Unsorrowful is the feeling
That there is something
Deep inside of me
That always wishes my well

Feelings I find in there
So much bigger
Than myself
They grant me consolation

A kind of consolation
We forget to search for ourselves
But that can be found in particles
In the lack of overwiewness

Only our own life can be lived
And we only die our own death
Who am I
The one that lives in the sunlight

Settle

I want you
Oh, how I want you
But how can I settle for that

Once I settled
For what I really wanted
And I was given it all

It was the start of all my afflictions
Filling the hole all I wanted
Had been digging

Filling it with emptiness
Until there was no way
To continue the same life

It might be that I'm always
Longing for somewhere else
Surviving instead of thriving

But all I know is that I want you
And for only that
I will never be able to settle
