lirik lagu emma gerson - the water
[intro]
ooooo
[verse 1]
you can say it’s always been this way since the beginning of time
human nature overtakes, it’s running right through the bloodline
you can say it flows in a circle that never unwinds
like the phases of the moon, it’s a fate you can’t design
[prechorus]
that’s fine
it’s not the lingering pain or the pulsing in your veins
it’s not the 10ft waves that should make you afraid
it’s not the storm in the sky or the raging riptides
what’ll eat you alive is living inside
those fears are a distraction from the real poison
[chorus]
it’s the water that you’re swimming in (ah oh, ah oh)
it’s the water that you’re swimming in (ah oh, ah oh)
[verse 2]
you can say you’ve calculated, everything leads back to your truth
you can waste away in your denial if that’s what you choose
you can say the game has its rules and you can follow right through
generations age, but the past still breathes in every room
[prechorus]
that’s fine
it’s not the voices when you sleep, or the people on their knees
it’s not the children in the street with bellies to feed
it’s not the beating in your head, it’s the things that you forget
what’ll find you dead when you least expect it
those fears are a distraction from the real poison
[chorus]
it’s the water that you’re swimming in (ah oh, ah oh)
it’s the water that you’re swimming in (ah oh, ah oh)
[bridge: emma reading from an article about us soldiers raping and murdering a young iraqi girl]
[prechorus]
that’s fine
it’s not the lingering pain or the pulsing in your veins
it’s not the 10ft waves that should make you afraid
it’s not the storm in the sky or the raging riptides
what’ll eat you alive is living inside
those fears are a distraction from the real poison
[chorus]
it’s the water that you’re swimming in (ah oh, ah oh)
it’s the water that you’re swimming in (ah oh, ah oh)
