the water that i am

I've been filling up

On the water that I was

And the water that I am

The water that I am

I put the river in my mouth

And I let it all drain out

Just to try and understand

The water that I was

And the water that I am

Aren't we all wells of memories felt

Can't you see water run deep

If you keep it safe

Then I might let you trace

The shape of the water in me

I've been washing up

In the water that I was

And the water that I am

The water that I am

Now I close my mouth and wait

For my form to sublimate

I begin to understand

The water that I was

And the water that I am

The water that I was

And the water that I am
