Dead In The Water Lyrics
Wanted
The last day
It was beauty to hold
Take back
I would take back
I would claw back
What they stole
Hold on
Just a little bit longer
Just hold on
Just a little bit longer
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
Cry out
Just you cry out
Will they answer
Your call
Sense of
Make some sense of
Just don't try it
At all
Hold on
Just a little bit longer
Just hold on
Just a little bit longer
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
There is nobody else
My loss
There is nobody else
My loss
There is no other place to die
There is no other place to die
Except for
My arms
My arms
Except for
My arms
Except for (x3)
My arms
The last day
It was beauty to hold
Take back
I would take back
I would claw back
What they stole
Just a little bit longer
Just hold on
Just a little bit longer
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
Just you cry out
Will they answer
Your call
Sense of
Make some sense of
Just don't try it
At all
Just a little bit longer
Just hold on
Just a little bit longer
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
I hold you
When you're dead in the water
My loss
There is nobody else
My loss
There is no other place to die
There is no other place to die
My arms
My arms
My arms

I think this is one of the most beautiful songs that I have ever heard. I am under the impression that Bruce, the singer of Pineapple Thief lost his son at an early age as in still an infant, so I believe that this song is that Bruce or possible the narrator was waiting for the conception of his/her child and shortly after birth it died. The child is dying, so he says hold on just a little bit longer, poessibly so he can survive for a few more moments. However at the end, the child dies in the arms of the father. This song is terribly sad and also kind of positive, because the child died in his father's loving arms, as an innocent child that couldn't live to be corrupted by the messed up world we live in. Overall, this song is quite complex with all the instrumentation, including effects that sound like a guitar being plugged into an amp and the cord manipulated. It's just a very beautiful song.
