Brackish Water Lyrics
I heard something I never could have thought would ever exist
Coming home was only a myth
I saw something can't make it up but could never forget
Seeing only what the water reflects
Seems all right, should have known
I don't care if you're not alone
In the brackish waters of home
Reasoning what I had lost
Watching the ? rain falling down
Where we went around
Falling to brackish sound
Trees and the crabgrass only look covered by time and the moss
Hoping for the time we had lost
Seems that now I've had my say, should never be ?
Coming home was always a joke
Reasoning what I had lost
Watching the Washington rain falling down
Where we went around
Falling to brackish sound
Coming home was only a myth
I saw something can't make it up but could never forget
Seeing only what the water reflects
Seems all right, should have known
I don't care if you're not alone
In the brackish waters of home
Reasoning what I had lost
Watching the ? rain falling down
Where we went around
Falling to brackish sound
Trees and the crabgrass only look covered by time and the moss
Hoping for the time we had lost
Seems that now I've had my say, should never be ?
Coming home was always a joke
Reasoning what I had lost
Watching the Washington rain falling down
Where we went around
Falling to brackish sound

This song is a love song written after the departure of the love one.At first, He reminded a night where the girl cried and left without any explanation. That it's why he called it brackish water. When he said "Seems all right", it means that if she cried that night, it's because she had faith in their story and he did things that hurted her so he "should have known". On the second part of the song, he's longing about their love.
