The water falls as it warms up slowly
Like life but that flows quickly
To slow to make you think
To fast not to think
Let the water flow as it doesDon't mess with anything
Thinking about the past in your head
Thinking about the future before you're deadPeople get scared
Scared of drowning in life
Don't want to be sinking
Just want to stay a floatBe happy as the water falls on you
You're lucky it's not stones trying to break you
Just escape as you have the chance to think
Don't be scared your life is on the brinkDon't worry what people think
Just clean your sins of then you're a new person
People don't care who you are
Only true friend want to know youDon't be worried
You've only got one shot
If you get two
Just pounce on the opportunityAs the water flows just don't worry
Just be you
Take it at your own pace
Live your life fully
