water
Ohmme Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Loosen the knot around your neck, we're on forgiveness now
Cue up the movie to the part where they all sink and drown

You don't know it
You don't know it
But they know that you won't ask them how

Cut down the branches make a twig out of the family tree
Upend the roots and send the ashes to infirmary

You don't know it
You don't know it
You don't know it
You don't know it

Why is there water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my

Why is there water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my

Why is it snowing

We made a killer from a lover from a memory
What made destruction so appealing to a human being

You don't know it
You don't know it
You don't
You don't
You don't

Why is there water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my

Why is there water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my eye
Water in my





Why is it snowing
