All I Ask Lyrics

Fumbling down a raod lined with signs
Its obvious I'm in the wrong direction
And i wont stop now you feel i feel fine
Just looking for some affection
And all i ask is to be able to hold on longer
And all i ask is to be able to walk on water

I figure it wont be long it wont be hard
I just gotta get my feet back on the ground
Just got a hold of some unlucky cards
And i have yet to make another round

And all i ask is to be able to hold on longer
And all i ask is to be able to walk on water
Walk on water

No one lent me a hand, no one laid a look upon me
Invisible to everythign but blame
No one cared to tell, no one dared to believe in anything
And left me to drown in this pain

And all i ask is to be able to hold on longer
And all i ask is to be able to walk on water
Walk on water

I think this song means that she is doing something that she wants to do, showing her independence and everyone thinks that she is making a mistake. All she wants is a little faith from everyone but no one believes she knows what she is doing. She wants someone to tell her they believe in her but no one will in the end. Its a beautiful song.

This song's from her Demo Tape. Walking on water means winning against death. It's a jewish symbol(she's a jew so this works out) that's also used in the bible(Jesus walking on water...).

I hate it when people make song so religous. But hey that's what songs are for- they mean different things for people. And also to FrolleinErdbeer Jews don't believe Jesus was nothing other than a average prophet.

I think she's saying that she isn't that happy, but she still doesn't want people to worry about her.

Walking on water is considered a miracle in a few religions, because It's generally regarded as something impossible (no duh). I think she's comparing holding on to walking on water; in other words, she's saying she can't hold on.

This is one bitchin' song!
