don’t you know there is a reason
for your missing integrity
for your lack of sensibility
one for each and every season
let it in and you will see
nothing’s like you planned it to be

you say to me you cannot be
a part of what’s so wrong
the truth is fact
and can’t be wretched
this is just where you belong

as I can see you’ll ever be
in this state of ritual misery
a failed attraction down on your knees
you’re losing sympathy

you’re bound to be a part of me
no one will set you free
there’s no release
you’re into this
just try to be like me

why can’t you see you’ll never reach
the point you feel agravically free
something got lost down on your way
you don’t know what
just how you failed

down where the water falls
somewhere between the holes
it’s darker than I can show
and it’s so far to go

you’re under me trying to flee
but there’s no way out yours sincerely
a night in sorrow what it’s about to be
you can’t resist
you’ll break on my knees

downwards, downwards, down anyway
I hit you twice in the back
so come on out and play
better think don’t hesitate
if there is something you got left to say

down where the water falls…

upwards the river flows
unable to follow
it’s brighter than I can show
and it’s so very far to go

don’t you know there is a reason…

when all lies are locked in treason
would you think of me at all
no, just take it slow
nothing’s like it used to be here
take a listen to my fall
don’t hesitate oh no
don’t hesitate oh no

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
