The Used - The Divine Absence (This Is Water)

River silenced every note
Big shot courage, never known
Divorced from the world
Sinking back into the loam

Petals wilted
Hear the cries
Whispered into ears of stone
And so it goes

I won’t stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear
I will never say sorry
You’ll thank me when this is over

Of course I memorized the words
Perfections sharpened, they begin!
The flower reaches out for the Sun
And I don’t feel powerful

The rot that hollows out the core
Divines the absence on its own
Death streets paved in gold

I won’t stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear
I will never say sorry
You’ll thank me when this is over

Begins with a single word
A single note
A single drop of rain

So fragile the moment’s fleeting
The drop of rain evaporates
Hand’s death to the string
The lungs are devoid of breathing

This is water
You know this is water

Million drops together flows
The rivers
Unconditional love
Carved to stone

I won’t stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear
I will never say sorry
You’ll thank me when this is over

I won’t stay buried forever
One can be more than a million
This I swear
I will never say sorry
You’ll thank me when this is over
