"H2O" lyrics

You tried your best to bury in the ground
A place, a face, a very small town
The walls you built are crumbling down
Haunted by the shadows all around

And yeah, it was forever ago
The scars are more painful than you'll know

The ghosts in your heart are alive, spread the ashes of your father
If your angst has survived, then you're only treading water

You feel like you can never get it right
Sticks and stones have given up the fight
'Cause words cut sharper than a knife
And losses become larger than life

And yeah, it was forever ago
The closer sometimes just won't stay closed

The ghosts in your heart are alive, spread the ashes of your father
If your angst has survived then you're only treading water
If you're lost in the dark then you're only treading water
Release to the wind, spread the ashes of your father
'Cause you're only treading water

Release me
Let me go
Release me
Let me go
Release me

And yeah, it was forever ago
But the past has a deadly undertow

The ghosts in your heart are alive, spread the ashes of your father
If your angst has survived, then you're only treading water
If you're lost in the dark, then you're only treading water
Release to the wind, spread the ashes of your father
'Cause you're only treading water
Yeah, you're only treading water (let me go)
You're only treading water (release me)
