Black Water Lyrics

Lyric discussion by jewdiful 

Cover art for Black Water lyrics by Apparat

these lyrics are all wrong. this is important, vastly so, for the context, symbology, and meaning of the song.

corrected:

Shapes still melt into the smoke 
Looking down at scattered bones 
I used to keep a slender hope 
'Til they spread above the stone 
'Til they spread above the stone



I pulled the trigger by mistake 
Floundering at the aftermath 
Slowly recognize the scale
 We will be ephemeral 
We will be ephemeral



Fact Isn't what you see Not anymore
, what it used to be

, Fact isn't what you see Not what it used to be

I'm flowing with black water 
Into a loss of surgency 
Into a loss of surgency

Lyric Correction

oops, it's supposed to be "'Til they spread ABOVE the stone"

you're more right then the original, but still wrong, the last part is:

"I'm flowing in blackwater, to another surging sea"
