lyrics

Wake of the summer light
Take of the pure delight
I’m in the summer light
and it is Falling

Contemplate all I know
How much of it should I show
Which parts of it help me grow
and it’s Appalling

Black Willows are waving here
Survive for another year
Their wisdom will help me steer
into the Dawning

Now I know that
Water once was Gold
Yes, now I know that Water once was Gold,
so I’m told
Now I know how Water became Gold,
and why it’s sold
Yes, now I know that
Water once was Gold

Caught in the broad of night
Caught my internal fright
I’m in the broad of night
and I am Waiting

On my last straw again
Sensitive under my skin
I’m pushing away my friends
and it’s Degrading

Attention becoming clear
Prevention is getting near
The comfort in things we fear
will keep us Wanting

Now I know that
Water once was Gold
Yes, now I know that Water once was Gold,
so I’m told
Now I know how Water became Gold,
and why it’s sold
Yes, now I know that
Water once was Gold

Basically it boils down to
The manicured lifestyle we cling to
Keep it tame with fossil fuel
The input’s more than the output’s renewal
It’s in our Bed
Our Bread
Our Head

This water is more powerful
Than Gold!
