Songtext von Water That Flows

Everything that connects Can also disconnect With a gesture, a click, or silence No one learns to stay anymore Because staying takes a toll And the cost is scary Our actions slip away like water through our fingers The tighter we grip, the faster it slips away No one wants depth they want secrets Fast, rootless, leaving no trace behind Intimacy has an expiration date The bond is a burden, commitment weighs us down We've replaced love with availability We call it a connection, but it's just a transaction No fixed form, no structure, no center We mold ourselves into what the other wants us to be And when it no longer fits, it's gone not even inside What remains is the trace of who we once truly were Water that flows leaves no mark Water that flows has no roots We're liquid, and loneliness sets sail On the same boat that made us this way The consumerism of relationships discards us When the new model appears in the window Loyalty is weakness, affection drifts away From anything that isn't optimized And social media multiplies our connections But multiplying connections isn't the same as belonging We have thousands of faces, no substance And the result is a thirst that hurts to behold No fixed form, no structure, no center We mold ourselves to what others want us to be And when we no longer fit, it's over not even inside All that remains is the trace of what we once truly were Water that flows leaves no mark Water that flows has no roots We're fluid, and loneliness boards The same boat that made us this way Disposable Disposable Disposable Replaced before we're done Not because we're worthless, but because the system Never learned what it means to endure But water can also fill the ocean It can cut through rock, it can nourish The problem isn't being fluidit's being empty It's not having the courage to build Water that flows leaves no mark Water that flows has no roots We are liquid, and loneliness boards The same boat that made us this way Water that flows Leaves no mark Has no roots
