Water Leaking, Water Moving
Water leaking, water movingWater goes not of its choosingWaterfalls and water droppingWater has no way of stoppingWater goes down, water went into me, 90%But water can't try, never will, it's my 10% that fights uphillAnd when I'm dead and the water crawls out, all that 90% falls outAnd all that's left are the bones that rattle the feet that climbed and thoughts that battledThat's the part with the gifts and flawsThe water just obeys nature's lawsJust obey and just give in and follow the rest have beenBut I had to fail and go be lonely just to learn I had my own wayThe things I want might just be troubleI might be left with only rubbleBut I've got too much confidence to only do things that make senseWhen you were young you got good gradesIt always seemed you had it madeWhen I was young and people liked me and told me all the things I might beBut everything was unpredicted, who knows just what might have fixed it?And time tries to pass in a torrent but I claw against the currentBecause water's leaking, water's movingWater goes not of its choosingSongtexteWaterfalls and water droppingWater has no way of stoppingWater goes down, water went into me, 90%But water can't try, never will, it's my 10% that fights uphillAnd when I'm dead and the water crawls out, all that 90% falls outAnd all that's left are the bones that rattle the feet that climbed and thoughts that battledThat's the part with the gifts and flawsThe water just obeys nature's laws Aus Songtexte Mania
