Letra de Words In The Water

[verse]
Standing knee deep in cold water, swiftly moving, somehow I knew I'd lost something
Wading waist deep I saw a book there in the river, waiting for me to find it there
I tried to read it, neck deep, treading water, but the tide, it pulled me out to sea

[Coro]
Then, with water in my eyes, the words began to rise from their place
They were beautiful and dread; I reached for them and fed on each phrase
They were honey on my lips, but then a bitter twist in my side
I knew they'd lay me in my grave; "Is there no one who can save me?" I cried

[verse]
Sinking, down deep through cold water and heavy silence, shadows stirring in the gloom
What things lay sleeping down deep in the darkness woke then, to find me in that tomb?

[Coro]
Then, with water in my eyes, the words began to rise from their place
They were beautiful and dread; I reached for them and fed on each phrase
They were honey on my lips, but then a bitter twist in my side
I knew they'd lay me in my grave; "Is there no one who can save me?" I cried

[Coro 2]
And when I lost all hope to look, someone took that heavy book from my hands
All its weight they set aside, after they had satisfied its demands
I felt white and black reverse, and the lifting a curse from my heart
Then like one receiving sight, I beheld a brilliant light in the dark
