Bad Water 歌词

So you want me to drench a desert Bad water is all I've got You ask me to imbue the poor Bad water is all I've got So you want to perceive your life? Bad water is in your mind Joy will never fill your heart Red water turns into the tar I am a cracked jar Bad water‘s running through my eyes I leak! It burns! But still I can be refilled It returns It kills a seed, kills a breed Smothers everything we need Plugging our pores up Flakes of salt drag to the start Our lips are dry from constant cry Our mouths are made of chalk and sand If only we could take one last sip Backwater would invite us To the one-way trip The sky is a cracked jar Bad water's running through the clouds It leaks! It burns! But still it can be refilled It returnes Until we wash our feet in a creek Until we spit in a cup and then drink Till we curse upon the sea Until the land can't shed a single tear
