about
Water is an experimental, psychedelic rock song by the band "Strange Matter". It is the band's first release — a sneak peek of their upcoming project.
lyrics
Out in the open
Deep as I can be but I'm still breathing
I turned away
Turned away from the sun as it's setting
So I find myself
So lost and so alone
I'm like the day without the sun
I'm like the rain without the sponge
Oh please, oh sun come back
It's too dark out here
I'm just a piece of driftwood
Floating slowly
Waves are pushing back and forth
Every tick of the hand is growing further apart
(When the tide rolls in and I can't swim)
Now the sand in the glass has expanded en masse again
Again
(I hold my breath and sink within)
The salt in the air is getting harder to bare
(This chasm of uncertainty)
As my ambition and my rhythm are whisked everywhere
again
Again
(I cannot see what lies beneath the waves)
