Grew up by the ocean Seekin' out the blue in the shades of grey, like a poem Or soliloquies, it was only me in a broken home So I'd spend my nights sittin', watchin' tides ever flowin' Drinkin' and smokin' A third divorce, it rained, it poured, and I got high to feel somethin' The sea is wild and volatile, I used to live in fear of it (Yeah) But now I run like water Let currents pull me far from shore I anchor down and I swim In the eyes of my daughter I'm beautiful I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall I rise and fall like water, like water Now I live by the river The water's stained, but it couldn't be any clearer I don't love this town, but I'm here so I don't have to miss her Could be guilt 'cause I don't know if I'll ever give her a sister But I'll love her till the waves pull me under My ego I have laid to rest, I resurrect to be somethin', hmm The sea is wild and volatile, I used to live in fear of it (Yeah) But now I run like water Let currents pull me far from shore I anchor down and I swim In the eyes of my daughter I'm beautiful I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall I rise and fall like water, like a waterfall I rise and fall like water, like water
